Answer:

Electrons conducted heat

Explanation:

Iron is a metallic compound. One property of metallic compounds are that they have many loose electrons.

Consider the two rods to be a singular rod, since they touch:

An uncountable number of electrons at one end of the rod are heated, so they gain kinetic energy. Those electrons then collide with other electrons, which energize those as well (although less), which is equal to adding heat. This is a pattern that will flow all the way through the rod.

Why do gases diffuse more quickly than liquids?
Alborosie

Answer:

D)Gas particles move rapidly and have space between them.

Explanation:

Matter exists in three states namely: solids, liquids and gases. The particles contained in these three states are different from one another. In the gaseous state, the particles are FAR APART from one another i.e. space exists and they move at a very fast rate in contrast to the particles of a liquid, which have less space and move slower.

This rapid movement of gas particles within a less restricted space accounts for the reason why gaseous substances DIFFUSE more quickly than liquids.
