Your teacher has created a thermodynamics lab that involves heat transfer while making tea. Each lab group is given a teapot containing 250 mL (=0.25 kg) of water at room temperature, 20° C which is 68° F the teacher makes the tea which is at the boiling point of water, 100° C.
You must request the correct quantity of water to bring the tea to a temperature where you can drink it without burning your tongue. Your lab group determines that a good drinking temperature is 65° C which is about 150° F and proceeds with that hole in mind.
Complete the sentence below.
The room temperature water (a) (gives cold energy to / gains heat from) the hot tea in order to chill it to a drinkable temperature.

A cup of tea with a temperature of 80° C is placed on a table in a 20° C room.
What happens to the thermal energy and molecular motion of the tea when it is left on the table?
The thermal energy increases and the molecules move faster.
The thermal energy decreases and the molecules move faster.
The thermal energy increases and the molecules move more slowly.
The thermal energy decreases and the molecules move more slowly.

Which mechanism of heat transfer does not require a medium?
Conduction
Convection
Radiation
All of the above require a medium
What does thermal equilibrium mean?
It is the point at which two substances reach the same temperature and heat no longer flows between them.
It is the condition under which a substance changes from solid to liquid.
It is the condition under which a substance emits the maximum amount of radiation.
It is the point at which a substance can no longer absorb heat.
