Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of energy; energy is neither created nor destroyed but is converted from one form to another.
This means that energy can not be lost, we can trace the transfer of energy between a system and its surroundings.
When a pot of water at 25°C is placed over a flame until it has boiled away, energy is transferred from the pot (the system) to the surroundings hence the temperature of the surroundings rises accordingly.
