Study Notes

Absolute Temperature

  • Characterizes the state of thermal equilibrium of a system, having the same value throughout the system regardless of the number of particles.
  • Measures the intensity of thermal agitation movement, only applicable to systems in thermal equilibrium.
  • Absolute zero (0 K) is a hypothetical state where all agitation movements cease, but it is unreachable according to the 3rd Principle.
  • Any process involving a change in absolute temperature involves the exchange of energy as heat (Q).
