Thermal energy and phase changes

Physics

61 Terms

1

Heat

The transfer of thermal energy. Heat is not a substance, and does not flow. It can only be transferred

New cards
2

Thermal energy

The kinetic energy of the particles in a substance due to their random motion

New cards
3

Temperature

A measure of the average kinetic energy of the atoms or molecules of a substance

New cards
4

Kinetic molecular theory

All matter is composed of moving particles. Particles in hot materials move faster than particles in cooler materials, so they have more kinetic energy

New cards
5

________________ is generated by particle movement in an object or system and is linked to its temperature. Higher temperatures mean more thermal energy. It can be transferred between objects through conduction, convection, or radiation.

Thermal energy

New cards
6

First law of thermodynamics

The change in the energy of a system is the sum of the work and heat exchanged between a system and its surroundings

ΔE = W+ Q

New cards
7

When is the work negative?

When the system does work on its surroundings, it loses energy, so W is negative

New cards
8

When is the heat transferred negative?

If heat is transferred out of the system, energy is lost, so Q is negative

New cards
9

Second law of thermodynamics

Thermal energy is always transferred from an object at a higher temperature to an object at a lower temperature. The transfer will continue until thermal equilibrium is reached.

New cards
10

Thermal equilibrium

Thermal equilibrium means that both objects are at the same temperature.

Phase change

Refers to the change of state of a material

New cards
17

What happens when a material reaches a temperature at which it changes state?

New cards
19

When will be greater the amount of heat required?

A. Changing a mterial’s phase

B. Increasing the material’s temperature by one degree

A. A larger amount of heat is required to change a mterial’s phase than the heat required to increase the material’s temperature by one degree (Breaking the bonds between molecules requires much more energy).

Describe what would happen if you were to heat liquid water to a temperature of 110 °C.

When the temperature reach 100°C, it will start to vaporize, and its temperature will remain at 100°C until all the water become vapour. You can never increase the temperature to 110°C until you increase the pressure.

Explain the terms “latent heat of fusion” and “latent heat of vaporization.”

The "latent heat of fusion" refers to the amount of heat energy required to change a substance from a solid to a liquid state at its melting point, without changing its temperature. The "latent heat of vaporization" is the amount of heat energy needed to convert a substance from a liquid to a gas state at its boiling point, without changing its temperature. Both processes involve the absorption or release of energy without a change in temperature.
