Questions and Answers

What is the relationship between the number of molecules in an object and its total kinetic energy?

  • The more molecules an object has, the lower its total kinetic energy.
  • The more molecules an object has, the higher its total kinetic energy. (correct)
  • The number of molecules in an object has no effect on its total kinetic energy.
  • The total kinetic energy of an object is dependent on factors other than the number of molecules.

    • What is the difference between thermal energy and temperature?

  • Thermal energy is the measure of the average kinetic energy of molecules in an object, while temperature is the measure of the total kinetic energy of an object.
  • Thermal energy is the measure of the total kinetic energy of an object, while temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of molecules in an object. (correct)
  • Thermal energy and temperature are the same thing.
  • Thermal energy and temperature are unrelated concepts.

    • Which direction does energy always transfer?

  • From cooler things to warmer things.
  • From warmer things to cooler things. (correct)
  • Energy does not transfer between objects.
  • Energy transfers equally in all directions.

    Study Notes

    • Adding ice cubes to soup can cool it down.
    • Soup with more molecules has a higher total kinetic energy than soup with fewer molecules.
    • Total kinetic energy is the sum of the kinetic energy of all molecules in an object or material.
    • Thermal energy and temperature are not the same thing.
    • Energy always transfers from warmer things to cooler things.
    • The soup and the air in a room will eventually reach the same temperature through the transfer of kinetic energy.
    • Air has a much higher total kinetic energy than soup due to the larger number of air molecules.
    • Equilibrium is reached when two objects have the same average kinetic energy.
    • The same transfer of kinetic energy can have a different effect on the temperature of different objects.
    • More molecules in an object mean a higher total kinetic energy.
