Answer is: B.) Yes, if work is done, this transfer process can take place.
For example, air conditioner involves a cyclic process that transfers heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir, but with use of electricity.
Thermal conductuction is the transfer of heat through physical contact. Thermal conduction is the transfer of heat by microscopic collisions of particles. Heat spontaneously flows from a hotter to a colder body.
The process of heat conduction depends on four basic factors: the temperature gradient, the cross section of the materials involved, their path length and the properties of those materials.
2-naphthol, based on its structure will be least soluble in water.
2-Naphthol, or β-naphthol, is a fluorescent, colorless (or occasionally yellow) crystalline solid with the formula C10H7OH. It is an isomer of 1-naphthol, differing by the location of the hydroxyl group on the naphthalene ring. The naphthols are naphthalene homologues of phenol, but more reactive. Both isomers are soluble in simple alcohols, ethers, and chloroform. 2-Naphthol is a widely used intermediate for the production of dyes and other compounds.
