That particular group of elements is reffered to as the "Noble Gasses"--a title that comes from the fact that these gases are very "secure" and don't mix well with other elements.
Stark contrast to paths on energy surfaces or even mechanistic reactions, rule-based and inductive computational approaches to reaction prediction mostly consider only overall transformations. Overall transformations are general molecular graph rearrangements reflecting only the net change of several successive mechanistic reactions. For example, Figure 1 shows the overall transformation of an alkene interacting with hydrobromic acid to yield the alkyl bromide along with the two elementary reactions which compose the transformation.

The situation (heat going through the ceiling) describes
conduction ... heat going from one place to another by
soaking through some material.
A). This is the one. Heat goes from from the marshmallow
to your hand by soaking through the wire. This is conduction too.
B). No. The heat in the room goes from the floor to the ceiling
because the warm air rises and carries it there. This is convection.
C). No. There's nothing for the heat to soak through between
the sun and the roof, and nothing that can move from the sun
to the roof and bring the heat with it. This is radiation.
D). No. Cold water sinks from the surface to the bottom because
warm water rose from the bottom to the surface, taking heat with it.
This is convection.
