Two cups of coffee, one that is at 10°C and one that is at 20°C, are mixed. Which statement about the temperature of the mixture is correct?

A
There is no kinetic energy transfer so the temperature of the coffee in the warmer cup is the final temperature.
B
The kinetic theory dictates that the temperature of the coffee in the cooler cup is the final temperature.
C
Energy is transferred from faster moving molecules to slower moving molecules, and the result is the average of 15°C.
D
Energy transfer occurs as the molecules collide, and the result is additive; the final temperature is 30°C.
