Question

What statement best describes a closed system? Matter and energy can be exchanged freely between the system and surroundings. Matter can be exchanged between the system and surroundings, but energy cannot. Energy can be exchanged between the system and surroundings, but matter cannot. Neither energy nor matter can be exchanged between the system and surroundings

Answer 1

I believe the answer is as follows. Energy can be exchanged between system and surroundings, but matter cannot.

Answer 2

Energy can be exchanged between the system and surroundings, but matter cannot.

Step-by-step explanation:

In thermodynamics a closed does not allow the exchange of matter but allows the exchange of energy. Thus option C is correct and option B is incorrect.

Open system allows both the transfer of mass and energy. Thus option A is incorrect.

Isolated system does not allow the transfer of mass nor energy. Option D is incorrect.
