Ch 21 Temperature, Heat, and Expansion. Temperature A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
Thermal energy is transferred through the hydrosphere from warmer latitudes to cooler polar regions largely due to global winds.
Ch. 6 – Thermal Energy I. Temperature and Energy Transfer (p. 158 – 170) Temperature Thermal Energy Heat Transfer.
Section 7.2Calorimetry & Heat Capacity Why do some things get hot more quickly than others?
How hot or cold something is Measures avg. K.E. of the particles in the object. Tool: thermometer – meas. in degrees. Scales ~ Celsius (°C) 0° - 100° ~
Accuracy and Precision With Significant Figures. Accuracy Accuracy – how closely a measurement agrees with an accepted value. For example: –The accepted.
Classify the following properties as Physical or Chemical:
Theories of Heat. all substances contain tiny, constantly moving particles Kinetic Theory.
