Study Notes
Temperature and Heat
- Temperature is a measure of the total kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
- Heat and temperature are not the same thing, although they are related concepts.
- Heat is a form of energy that is transferred from one body to another due to a difference in temperature.
Absolute Zero
- Absolute zero is the theoretical lowest possible temperature where particles have no kinetic energy.
- At absolute zero, particles would theoretically have zero motion, which is impossible to achieve in practice.
Temperature and Kinetic Energy
- There is a direct relationship between temperature and the total kinetic energy of particles in a substance.
- As the temperature of a substance increases, the total kinetic energy of its particles also increases.
- Conversely, a decrease in temperature leads to a decrease in the total kinetic energy of particles.
