1
New cards

Heating is…

energy transfer due to a temperature difference.

2
New cards

Once the two blocks reach the same temperature…

heating doesn't occur anymore.

3
New cards

Two objects are in thermal equilibrium when…

they are at the same temperature.

4
New cards

The two general types of heating are by…

Particles

5
New cards

When we place a hot block on top of a cold block…

the particles of each block collide.

6
New cards

The particles of each block collide and transfer kinetic energy until eventually…

particles in both blocks have the same average kinetic energy.

7
New cards

temperature is…

a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles.

8
New cards

Why is temperature a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles?

When we heat an object, the average kinetic energy of its particles increases and we observe a temperature increase. When an object cools down, the average kinetic energy of its particles decreases and we observe a temperature decrease.

9
New cards

When we heat a beaker of water what happens?

NAME?

10
New cards

The SI unit for temperature is…

The Kelvin

11
New cards

A change in temperature in degrees Celsius is…

the same as the change in kelvin.

12
New cards

Each of the particles that make up matter has…

Kinetic energy

13
New cards

When a system changes from a solid, to a liquid, to a gas, the particles' average Kinetic energy………. and potential energy ……………..

Increases

14
New cards

Between particles there are…

Intermolecular forces

15
New cards

When a system changes from a solid, to a liquid, to a gas ….. of the intermolecular forces are overcome

Some

16
New cards

We define the internal energy of a system as the sum of the ……… ……….. kinetic and potential energies of its particles.

Randomly Distributed

17
New cards

When energy is transferred to a system by heating, its internal energy…

Increases

18
New cards

When energy is transferred from a system by heating, its internal energy…

Decreases

19

What is Potential Energy

Stored Energy

20
New cards

When energy is transferred by heating to a system, we first observe a temperature rise. During this time kinetic energy………… and potential energy …………..

Increases

21
New cards

When a system undergoes a change of state, the particles' average kinetic energy………… and average potential energy ………..

Stays the same

22
New cards

When work is done on a system, its internal energy can…

increase

23
New cards

When work is done by a system, its internal energy can…

decrease

24
New cards

The change in internal energy is equal to energy transfer due to heating…… the work done on the system.

Plus

25
New cards

Internal energy formula

ΔE = Q + W

26
New cards

The temperature increase of a substance depends on the amount of ………. transferred by heating and the ……….. of the substance.

energy

27
New cards

As the mass of the object increases, there is a ……….. increase in temperature.

smaller

28
New cards

What are the units of specific heat capacity?

29
New cards

What is the third factor that affects the temperature increase of a substance?

Specific Heat capacity

30
New cards

What is the definition of specific heat capacity?

The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1kg of substance by 1K without changing its state.
