A reaction is occurring in a test tube. How is heat transmitted to the surroundings?(1 point)

Molecules collide with the glass, and the glass molecules then transmit that energy to the outside.
Heat is carried out with matter as matter is changed with the surroundings.
All of the heat escapes out of the open top of the test tube as molecules collide with the air.
As bubbles are formed and gas escapes, the heat is carried with the rising bubbles.

The most accurate statement regarding how heat is transmitted to the surroundings in a test tube reaction would be:

Molecules collide with the glass, and the glass molecules then transmit that energy to the outside.

This process describes conduction, where heat is transferred from the molecules of the reaction to the glass of the test tube and then to the surrounding air.
