1. Temperature, the average kinetic energy of particles, indicates how warm something is. Thermal energy, or the overall kinetic energy of the particles, indicates how a substance or material will transmit heat or chill something else.
2. A thermal expansion is a matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature.
3. Heat is the form of energy that is transferred between systems or objects with different temperatures.
4. Air temperature near or over bodies of water is much different from that over land due to differences in the way water and land heat and cool. Properties that affect water temperature are transparency, ability to circulate, and specific heat.
5. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through space by electromagnetic radiation.
6. Radiation is natural and found everywhere, it comes from outer space, the air we breathe, and the earth we tread.
7. When a fluid, such as air or a liquid, is heated and then travels away from the source, it carries the thermal energy along. The fluid above a hot surface expands, becomes less dense, and rises.
8. Convection currents in the Earth occur in the mantle
9. The fire's heat causes molecules in the pan to vibrate faster, making it hotter. These vibrating molecules collide with their neighboring molecules, making them also vibrate faster.
10. Since air is a poor conductor, most energy transfer by conduction occurs right near Earth's surface. Conduction directly affects air temperature only a few centimeters into the atmosphere.
<u>A scientist B might want to replicate the experiment of another scientist A in order to assess the claims made by scientist A.</u> In other words, replication of the experiment of another scientist is done to see if a similar outcome would be arrived at or there would be variations.
<em>The claims made by a scientist while reporting the outcome of a particular experiment must be reproducible by another scientist under similar conditions. Otherwise, the claims are said to be false.</em>
Use the equation q=ncΔT. q= heat absorbed our released (in this case 1004J) n= number of moles of sample ( in this case 2.08 mol) c=molar heat capacity ΔT=change in temperature (in this case 20°C) You have to rewrite the equation for c. c=q/nΔT c=1004J/(2.08mol x 20°C) c=24.1 J/mol°C
