An ice cube is placed in a closed insulated container of hot water. After five minutes, the ice cube disappears. Which best describes the change that took place inside the container?

• The cold energy from the ice cube transferred into the hot water, causing the ice to melt.

• The cold energy from the water transferred to the ice cube.

• The thermal energy from the water transferred to the ice cube, causing it to melt.

• There was no ice cube to begin with.
