An iron bar at 200°C is placed in thermal contact with an identical iron bar at 120°C in an isolated system. After 30 minutes, both iron bars are at
160°C. If the iron bars were placed in thermal contact in an open system instead of an isolated system, how would the results be different?
Assume that the room temperature is 25°C.
A.
The temperatures of the iron bars after 30 minutes would be less than 160°C because heat would be lost to the surroundings.
B.
It would take more than 30 minutes for both iron bars to reach 160°C because heat would be transferred less efficiently.
C
D.
The temperatures of both iron bars would increase as they absorb heat from the surroundings.
The temperatures of both iron bars would decrease because pieces of them would be lost to the surroundings.

Listen base your answer to the question on the information below. propane is a fuel that is sold in rigid, pressurized cylinders. most of the propane in a cylinder is liquid, with gas in the space above the liquid level. when propane is released from the cylinder, the propane leaves the cylinder as a gas. propane gas is used as a fuel by mixing it with oxygen in the air and igniting the mixture, as represented by the balanced equation below. c3h8(g) + 5o2(g) → 3co2(g) + 4h2o() + 2219.2 kja small amount of methanethiol, which has a distinct odor, is added to the propane to consumers detect a propane leak. in methanethiol, the odor is caused by the thiol functional group (–sh). methanethiol, ch3sh, has a structure that is very similar to the structure of methanol. what is the correct structural formula for a molecule of methanethiol

Achemist who studies water samples did a demonstration of how to test for lead in water. she added a clear solution of potassium iodide to a clear solution of lead nitrate. then a yellow swirling solid formed in the liquid. what is most likely true about the yellow solid?
