Answer:

The container contains 8 g of liquid water and no ice.

Step-by-step explanation:

An open system is a system that can exchange mass or energy with the environment.

If the total mass of the system after 6 h is different from 12 g, it must be an open system.

If the total mass of the system after 6 h equals 12 g, it must be a closed system.
