Answer:
B. is the answer
Explanation:
Energy in form of heat is transferred from the warmer mashed potatoes to the cooler spoon.
General 'rule' - "like dissolves like". The solubility
of a solute in a solvent (that is, the extent of the mixing of the
solute and solvent species) depends on a balance between the natural
tendency for the solute and solvent species to mix and the tendency for a
system to have the lowest energy possible.
