After some time passes, the substances will reach the same temperature. When two substances at different temperatures are mixed, heat will naturally flow from the hotter substance to the cooler one until thermal equilibrium is achieved, meaning they will eventually reach the same temperature. The final temperature will depend on the specific heat capacities and masses of both substances, but they will not both reach 50°C or 25°C unless those were the initial temperatures of both substances.

The correct response to your question is: "After some time passes, the substances will reach the same temperature."
When substance A is dropped into substance B, heat will transfer between the two until they reach thermal equilibrium, resulting in both substances being at the same temperature. The final temperature will not specifically be 25°C or 50°C unless those are the initial temperatures or specific conditions given in the problem.
