Abbey · Answer 1

3. The temperatures of the two substances equalize.

Explanation:

As two objects at different temperatures are placed in contact, heat is transferred from the warmer to the cooler object until the temperature of the two objects be the same. The amount of heat that is transferred from the warmer object is equal to the amount of heat that is transferred into the cooler object. This is in agreement with the law of conservation of energy. So, the right choice is: 3. The temperatures of the two substances equalize.

A and C

Explanation:

All temperatures end up the same if placed next to the other, and the heat is going out of the carbon dioxide into the water.
