Kinetic Model Pretend all matter is composed of an ideal gas. All particles in a given substance are identical. All particles are hard spheres that collide elastically. All particles obey newton’s laws and behave randomly
Heat Sum of all kinetic energy of all of the particles in a substance
Temperature Average kinetic energy of all particles
