Two identical metal spheres at 8 °C are put in equal amount of water in two beakers, as shown below.

Two beakers are side by side; one is labeled Beaker A and the other is labeled Beaker B. Both beakers are the same shape, size, and are about two-thirds full with water. Both beakers have a metal sphere with a temperature of eight degrees Celsius submerged in the water.

Heat flows from the metal sphere to the water in Beaker A and from the water to the metal sphere in Beaker B. Which statement is correct? (4 points)


The temperature of the water is greater than 8 °C in Beaker A.

The temperature of the water is lower than 8 °C in Beaker B.

The temperature of the water in Beaker A will increase.

The temperature of the water in Beaker B will increase.
