Hi

I am not sure exactly what your question is. Here is a general answer to what I think you are asking:

Please post back if this does not answer the question you wanted to ask, clarifying your question.

Best wishes.

In cooling soda conduction occurs due to the phase change and temperature change. The conduction occurs through loss of heat. Heat is transfered to the environment. Heat is moved from one molecule to another leaving the soda can so when the heat escapes, the soda become cold. See the following link for more information:

Any questions feel free to ask.
