A student has an insulated tank with a divider that separates the two halves of the tank. She pours 100 L of water in each half and has a
digital thermometer in each half. The right side's water temperature is at 100 °C and the left side's water temperature is at 15 °C. She
removes the divider and closes the top. After a minute, the right side's water temperature is 80 °C, and the left side's water temperature is
at 35 °C.
Which statement explains what the student can gather from the data about the energy distribution of the system?
O A. Since the net change of each side is zero, there was no change in energy distribution.
OB. Since the temperature of each side changed the energy distribution became less uniform.
O C. Since the amount of data is so small, there is no way to know how the energy distribution changed.
O D. Since the temperatures of each side moved toward each other, the energy distribution became more uniform.
