What causes hot and cold water to become the same temperature once they are combined?

• The heat moves from cooler temperature to warmer temperature.

• The energy of the hot water runs out.

• Heat (thermal) energy from the hot water is transferred to the cold water.

• Heat (thermal) energy causes the water to boil.
