Question

A teacher brings in a cup of iced water and asks students to discuss if the system is exothermic or endothermic . Aida states the system is exothermic , while Alexander states the system is endothermic .

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Explanation:

In thermodynamics, a exothermic system looses heat to the surroundings while an endothermic system absorbs heat from the surroundings.

A system is a part the universe marked off by a specified boundary. The contents of the cup constitutes the system in this case.

The region of space outside the system is called the surroundings. Hence everything outside the cup constitutes the surroundings.
