Answer:
Sulfur
Explanation:
Sulfur has 16 valence electrons, as shown in the diagram.
It take more energy to break the bonds of the reactants and less energy is given off when the product bonds are formed.
<h3>What is Energy?</h3>
Energy is defined as the ability to do work. Work is done in the breaking or formation of bonds.
The standard Enthalpy (ΔH) of water which was formed in the given reaction is negative.
ΔH= Δproduct - Δreactant
This means that the energy to break the bonds of the reactants is more.

For a closed system, you need two things:
1) a conservation of mass within the boundaries of the system
2) the ability to freely exchange energy to & from the "closed" system with a surrounding external system
So, the answer is <u><em>never</em></u>, since your defining the "system" as the water within the bathtub, and an open bathtub is exposed to evaporation, which is not conserving mass within the defined "system".
