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).
