The correct statement that best describes what will happen as the door opens between the two rooms is:
**c. The temperature in both rooms will become equal over time.**
When the door opens, heat will transfer from the warmer room to the colder room until thermal equilibrium is reached, resulting in both rooms having the same temperature.
**c. The temperature in both rooms will become equal over time.**
When the door opens, heat will transfer from the warmer room to the colder room until thermal equilibrium is reached, resulting in both rooms having the same temperature.
