In a laboratory experiment a student was using Styrofoam cups and foil to reduce the energy lost during an exothermic reaction.  The reaction constantly had a temperature probe in it.  Towards the end of the reaction the student noticed the temperature in the cups was going down (opposite what they thought is should).  The student concluded that the energy was destroyed within the system.  This student's reasoning violates what law?

• Law of Conservation of Mass
• Law of Enthalpy
• First Law of Thermodynamics
• Law of Heat Transfer
