Barbara is conducting an experiment to observe heat flow. She places one piece of metal in a freezer at -18 degrees Celsius (°C)

and a second piece of metal in an oven at 200 °C. After 2 hours, she takes the metal pieces out of the freezer and oven and places them both in the same beaker of boiling water for two minutes. Which of the following best describes how some of the heat will initially move in this system?
Heat will flow from the frozen metal into the hot metal.


Heat will flow from the boiling water into the hot metal.


Heat will flow from the boiling water into the frozen metal.


Heat will flow from the frozen metal into the boiling water.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is heat will flow from the boiling water into the frozen metal.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be destroyed nor created but it can be transformed from 1 form to another form.

There are 3 processes of heat transfer:

  1. <u>Conduction:</u> This type of heat transfer occurs when there is direct contact between the two objects.
  2. <u>Convection:</u> This type of heat transfer occurs when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas) due to the movement of hot layers to the top and cold layers to the bottom which leads to convection currents.  
  3. <u>Radiation:</u> This type of heat transfer occurs when there is a direct transfer of energy through space.

The heat moves from a hot surface to a cold surface to maintain equilibrium.

We are given:

A metal is placed in a freezer (cold object) and another metal is placed in an oven (hot object) and then both the metals are placed in boiling water.

Initially, the heat will flow from the boiling water (hot object) into the frozen metal (cold object) to maintain equilibrium

Hence, the correct answer is heat will flow from the boiling water into the frozen metal.

What does a metal's position in an activity series indicate about the chemical properties of that particular metal?
Fed [463]
The closer to the top the metal is in the list, the more active the metal is and the stronger a reducing agent the metal is. When two different metals are involved in a redox reaction, the metal higher in the list will be oxidized and give up electrons that will reduce the cation of the less active metal.
