Study Notes

Effects of Heat on Matter

  • The effects of heat on matter include thermal expansion, phase change, and temperature change.
  • Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature.
  • Atoms and molecules in a solid constantly oscillate around their equilibrium point.
  • An example of thermal expansion is the buckling of railroad tracks.
  • Thermal expansion is linear, areal, or volumetric.
  • The linear expansion formula is ΔL = αΔT * Lâ‚€.
  • The area expansion formula is ΔA = 2αΔT * Aâ‚€.
  • The volume expansion formula is ΔV = 3αΔT * Vâ‚€.
  • α is the coefficient of linear expansion
  • The coefficient of linear expansion depends on the material.
  • A table with approximate coefficients of thermal expansion at 20°C is provided to help in calculation where α and β are the coefficients.

Temperature Change

  • Heat changes the temperature of a substance/material.
  • Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required per unit mass to change a substance's temperature by 1 Celsius Degree or 1 Kelvin.
  • The formula for calculating heat required to change temperature is Q = mcΔT where Q is the heat required, m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature.
  • A table of specific heat capacities in J/kg K is provided with various material values.

Phase Change

  • Heat can cause changes in the phase of matter (Solid, Liquid, Gas).
  • Heat of fusion is the heat required to melt a solid into a liquid. The formula is Q = mHf.
  • Heat of vaporization is the heat required to turn a liquid into gas. The formula is Q = mHv.
  • The latent heat of fusion is the amount of heat needed to change the phase from solid to liquid (without changing temperature).
  • The latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat needed to change the phase from liquid to gas (without changing temperature).
  • Different materials have different latent heat values, as seen in table 1.
  • A heating curve for water describes temperature change and phase changes.
