Question
Answer
temperature   Is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles in an object  
🗑
Fahrenheit scale   The temperature scale on which 32 and 212 are the temperature at which water freezes and boils  
🗑
Celsius scale   The temperature scale on which zero and 100 are the temperature at which water freezes and boils  
🗑
Kelvin scale   The temperature scale on which zero is the temperature at which no more energy can be removed from matter  
🗑
absolute zero   The temperature at which no more energy can be removed from matter  
🗑
conduction   The transfer of heat between particles within a substance  
🗑
heat is transferred by   conduction,convection,radiation  
🗑
convection   The moverment that transfer heat within the water  
🗑
radiation   Is the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves  
🗑
conductor   A material that conducts tranfers heat between its particles  
🗑
Insulator   A material that dose not conduct heat well ex:wood,wool,straw,paper,and cork also gases, such as air are also good insulator  
🗑
specific heat   The amount of energy requried to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of a substance by 1 kelvin  
🗑
specific heat of common substance is Aluminum   903  
🗑
specific heat of common substance is Brass   376  
🗑
specific heat of common substance is Copper   385  
🗑
specific heat of common substance is Glass   664  
🗑
specific heat of common substance is Ice   2,060  
🗑
specific heat of common substance is Iron   450  
🗑
specific heat of common substance is Sand   670  
🗑
specific heat of common substance is Silver   235  
🗑
specific heat of common substance is Water   4,180  
🗑
heat   Is the movement of thermal energy from a substance at a higher temperature to another at a lower temperature  
🗑
convection current   A current caused by the rising of heated fluid and sinking of cooled fluid  
🗑
the formula for change in energy   mass x specific heat x change in temperature  
🗑
solids   the particles that make up a solid are packed close and cannot move out of position but can vibrate and they have a fixed shape and fixed volume  
🗑
liquids   particles are close but not as tight as in a solid and don't have a definite shape but they do have a fixed volume  
🗑
gasses   particles are moving so fast, they are not close and they expand to fit all available space. No fixed shape or volume  
🗑
solid to liquid   this change is called melting. More thermal energy=less rigidness in particles and more movement and the temperature at which this change occurs is its melting pot  
🗑
liquid to solid   this change of state is called freezing. A substance losses thermal energy.  
🗑
liquid to gas   this change in state is called vaporization. This liquid adsorb thermal energy and the particles escape the liquid and are now gas particles. Boiling- when vaporization takes place and leads to evaporation  
🗑
gas to liquid   this change in state is called condensation. This is when a gas loses thermal energy  
🗑
thermal energy   the total energy of the particles in an object.  
🗑
thermal expansion   is the expanding of matter when its heated  
🗑
state   solid, liquid and gas  
🗑
change of state   the physically change from one state of matter to another  
🗑
meting   the change of state from a solid to a liquid  
🗑
melting point   the temperature at which a substances melts  
🗑
freezing point   the temperature at which a substance freezes  
🗑
vaporization   the process by which matter changes from the liquid to the gas state  
🗑
evaporation   vaporization that occurs at the surface of a liquid  
🗑
boiling   vaporization that occurs on and below the surface of a liquid  
🗑
boiling point   the temperature that a liquid substances boils  
🗑
condensation   a change from the gas state to the liquid state  
🗑
thermostat   a device that regulates tempertaure  
🗑
bimetallic strip   a strip made of different metals that expand at different rates  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
