Study Notes
Thermal Energy
- Thermal refers to the relation between heat and temperature
Diffusion
- The movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration is called diffusion
Energy
- The ability to cause change is defined as energy
Volume
- The term that refers to the amount of space something fills is volume
Energy Unit
- The unit of energy used in science is joules (J)
Compression
- The phenomenon that causes particles to occupy less volume is compression
Temperature
- Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of particles in a material
Fahrenheit Scale
- On the Fahrenheit scale, water boils at 212°
Thermal Expansion
- The increase in a material's volume when particle motion increases represents thermal expansion
Kinetic Energy and Temperature
- Kinetic energy is directly related to the temperature of a substance, meaning that as temperature increases, kinetic energy also increases
