Check:
- Heat will flow from the hot surface into the iron. (True)
- Its thermal energy will increase. (True)
Explanation: Heat flows spontaneously from the hotter surface (175°C) to the cooler iron (35°C), so the iron gains heat and its temperature and thermal energy rise. The other two statements are false.
