  1. Temperature David Nuhn

  2. Thermometers! How is temperature measured?

  3. In Fahrenheit, the boiling point is 212 and the melting point is 32, so the difference is 180. • In Celsius the boiling point is 100 and the melting point is 0, so the difference is 100! How many degrees are between the melting point of ice and boiling point of water on the Celsius scale?

  4. Heat is not an internal property of matter heat is just a way to change the temperature of an object. Why is it incorrect to say that matter contains heat?

  5. When a thermometer reaches thermal equilibrium, the temperature of the thermometer and the substance it is measuring are the same. Therefore, the thermometer is essentially measuring its own temperature. What is meant by saying that a thermometer measures its own temperature?

  6. Thermal equilibrium is when the temperature of a system or organism is equal to the temperature of its surroundings. What is thermal equilibrium?

  7. The kinetic and potential energy in molecules of an object. An increase of energy results in a temperature increase Internal Energy

  8. A heat calorie is the amount of energy it takes to heat up 1 mL of water in 1 degree Celsius. • And the other calorie is a food calorie 1 food calorie is 1 C. The difference between a calorie and a Calorie

  9. Solids expand the most. When heating up a solid the movement of the particles become highly powerful and can push other particles. Which expands most for increases in temperature: solids, liquids, or gases?

  10. The density of water is greatest at about 4 degrees Celsius. What temperature is the density of water greatest?

  11. Water stores what is called latent heat. This is basically the energy required to convert water through its stages. The lack thereof of this energy is the change from liquid to solid. The smaller and more shallow lakes possess less liquid water and less latent energy. Why do shallow lakes freeze quickly in winter, and deep lakes not at all?
