Question

Audrey pours hot chocolate into a cup. How is heat energy transferred? A) Heat from the hot chocolate moves to the cup. B) Cold from the cup moves to the hot chocolate. C) Heat energy does not move because the heat is in a liquid. D) Heat from the hot chocolate moves into the cup, and cold from the cup moves into the hot chocolate.

Answer 1

A) Heat from the hot chocolate moves to the cup

Step-by-step explanation:

As part of the second law of thermodynamics, heat flows from hot to cold objects. Option B goes against that. Option C is incorrect because heat can transferred in a liquid via convection. Option D is incorrect because it states that the cold from the cup moves into the hot chocolate. As you drink you hot chocolate, it becomes cold because its thermal energy of heat is being released into the surroundings.

Hope this helps :))
