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 $100^{\circ} C$, while the other one is kept at $0^{\circ} C$. If the two are brought into contact, then assuming no heat loss to the environment, the final temperature that they will reach is

  • A

    $50^{\circ} C$

  • B

    more than $50^{\circ} C$

  • C

    less than $50^{\circ} C$

  • D

    $0^{\circ} C$
