15. Sample one (100. g of metal X at 25°C) is placed in contact with sample two (110. g
of metal X at 30°C). Which of the following statements are true? Select any that apply
and answer with capital letters and no spaces (e.g. ABCDE).
$m C \Delta T = m C \Delta T$
$(100)(2.5) = (110)(2.5)$
A. The final temperature of sample two will be higher than the final temperature of
sample one
B. The temperatures of the samples will change due to an exchange of thermal energy
in the metals
C. Thermal energy of the samples could be exchanged as either heat or work
D. The initial energy of sample two is higher than that of sample one
E. The temperature change will be the same for both samples
