Answer:

The answer must be B

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the hot soup increases the temperature of the room it also increased the temprature of the ice water and because whatever surroundings the soup and the ice is in it transfers heat energy to the room and because most of the energy is lost in the room it eventually becomes the same tempature.
