(c)
The change if both pieces of ice were mix at the same time.
(c)

Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Two bodies are said to be in thermal equilibrium if they are in a close connection that permits either to obtain energy from the other. Still, nevertheless, no net energy is transferred between them. During the process of reaching thermal equilibrium, heat, which is a form of energy, is transferred between the objects.
If both pieces of ice were mix at the same time, then there is no change as the initial and final conditions in equilibrium state are identical.
Conclusion:
Therefore, there is no change at the time of mixing of both ice pieces.
