Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution

G? Due to diffusion because the molecules are moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

I'm still really confused about this one. Any help would be appreciated.

The molecules appear to be sealed off in their own respective containers, so I don't see how they could diffuse from one into the other.

The initial temperatures of the two containers are given, so one is clearly hotter than the other. That's enough information to figure out which way heat flows.
