Study Notes

Moderation of Temperature by Water

Water has the capacity to absorb a significant amount of heat while experiencing only a minor change in its own temperature.
It releases stored heat to cooler air, contributing to the moderation of temperature.

Temperature and Heat

Kinetic energy refers to the energy of motion.
Thermal energy specifically relates to the kinetic energy associated with the random movement of atoms or molecules.
Temperature serves as a measure of the average kinetic energy of molecules within a substance.
Heat represents the transfer of thermal energy from one body of matter to another.
