Explain the direction of heat transfer between a mug of hot cocoa sitting in a cold room and explain what eventually happens to the average kinetic energy of the cocoa as a result of the transfer.?

The heat is going from the hot cocoa outwards into the room, as this is an exothermic thing meaning it puts out heat. The average kinetic energy will be lower than original simply because there is less heat.


When you microwave water why is the water hotter than the mug?

travel mugs act just like Thermal flasks there is a container inside the outside of the mug which is separated from contact by a vacuum which prevents heat from conducting apart from at the top where there is a bit of contact and over time heat will escaped through that
