If your science teacher says B, it’s probably because water has a negative and positive end, heat is just a form of energy, as other atoms can’t leave (they’re attracted to the ends) they are being insulated; but notice that ice will melt into gas (where atoms have tons of space) for other atoms to escape. Hence ice and gas aren’t ideal. (Air is a gas here.)
It’s not a 100% but hopefully it helps with some kind of analogy.
Answer : The temperature will be, 392.462 K
Explanation :
According to the Arrhenius equation,
or,
![\log (\frac{K_2}{K_1})=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Clog%20%28%5Cfrac%7BK_2%7D%7BK_1%7D%29%3D%5Cfrac%7BEa%7D%7B2.303%5Ctimes%20R%7D%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7BT_1%7D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7BT_2%7D%5D)
where,
= rate constant at 
=
= rate constant at 
= 
= activation energy for the reaction = 66.41 kJ/mole = 66410 J/mole
R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole.K
= initial temperature = 293 K
= final temperature = ?
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:
![\log (\frac{3K_1}{K_1})=\frac{66410J/mole}{2.303\times 8.314J/mole.K}[\frac{1}{293K}-\frac{1}{T_2}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Clog%20%28%5Cfrac%7B3K_1%7D%7BK_1%7D%29%3D%5Cfrac%7B66410J%2Fmole%7D%7B2.303%5Ctimes%208.314J%2Fmole.K%7D%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B293K%7D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7BT_2%7D%5D)
Therefore, the temperature will be, 392.462 K
