Answer 1

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

This is because the metal surface is at a higher temperature (25 degrees Celsius) compared to the ice cream, which is typically below freezing point. As a result, heat will flow from the warmer metal surface to the colder ice cream, causing the ice cream to absorb heat and melt.
