Students were investigating thermal energy. They put a metal spoon in the freezer. They put hot water in a beaker and measured the water temperature. They removed the spoon from the freezer and put it in the beaker. After 10 minutes, the students measured the water temperature again and touched the spoon. The data are shown in the table.

Which best describes how the thermal energy in the water and in the spoon changed during the investigation?

• The water and the spoon both lost thermal energy.

• The water and the spoon both gained thermal energy.

• The water lost thermal energy, and the spoon gained thermal energy.

• The water gained thermal energy, and the spoon lost thermal energy.
