You place ice cream on a metal surface that is at a room temperature of 25 degrees Celsius. Which will happen when the ice cream and metal surface interact?(1 point)

Question

Responses

A.Heat is transferred from the ice cream to the air, and the ice cream melts.

B.Heat is transferred from the ice cream to the metal surface, and the ice cream melts.

C.Heat is transferred from the metal surface to the ice cream, and the ice cream melts.

D.Heat is transferred from the ice cream and metal surface to the air, and the ice cream melts.

Answer 1

The correct response is:

B. Heat is transferred from the ice cream to the metal surface, and the ice cream melts.

When ice cream is placed on a metal surface at a higher temperature (25 degrees Celsius), heat will flow from the metal surface to the ice cream, causing the ice cream to absorb this heat and melt.

Answer 2

are you sure its not c

Answer 3

Yes, I am sure that the correct answer is B.

In the scenario described, heat transfer occurs from the metal surface (which is at room temperature, 25 degrees Celsius) to the ice cream (which is at a lower temperature). As a result, the ice cream absorbs heat from the metal surface, causing it to melt.

Option C ("Heat is transferred from the metal surface to the ice cream, and the ice cream melts") is not accurate because it incorrectly states the direction of heat transfer. The metal surface is warmer than the ice cream, and thus, heat flows from the warmer metal to the cooler ice cream, not the other way around.

So the correct response remains B.
