Two identical bodies are made of a material for which the heat capacity increases with temperature. One of these is held at a temperature of $100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ while the other one is kept $0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. If the two are brought into contact, then, assuming no heat loss to the environment, the final temperature that they will reach is $-$

• A

  $50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$
• B

  Less than $50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$
• Correct answer
  C

  More than $50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$
• D

  $0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$

Solution

$\because$ Heat capacity increases with temperature.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
