Two identical bodies are made of a material whose heat capacity increases with temperature. One of these is at \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), while the other one is at \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). If the two bodies are brought into contact, then assuming no heat loss, the final common temperature will be:

1. \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
2.  more than \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) 
3. less than \(50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) but greater than \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) 
4. \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
