D
Particles always move even when they have fixed positions.
12

An ice cube is dropped into a glass of milk at 20°C. Which statement explains the transfer of kinetic energy (KE)?

A
Because milk has higher KE than ice, KE is transferred from the milk to the molecules of ice.
B
Because milk has higher KE than ice, KE is transferred from the molecules of ice to the milk.
C
Because ice has higher KE than milk, KE is transferred from the milk to the molecules of ice.
D
Because ice has higher KE than milk, KE is transferred from the molecules of ice to the milk.
