    Ice melting in water over time?

    Don't worry, I ended up just using 12, most likely unreliable, but it will do the job, thanks for the help Do I have to mark this as solved? I am not sure how

    What is the Final Temperature of Soda and Watermelon in the Ice Chest?

    Qlost=Qgained MC∆T(watermelon)=MC∆T(soda) 9.89x4186x(26.4-t)=(0.35x12)x3800x(t-3.35) 1092947.856-41399.54t=15960t-53466 57359.54t=1146413.856 t=19.98645484 so the final temperature of the system will be approximately 20°C
