What is “temperature” • Temperature is a measurement used to quantify the sensations of hot or cold, but what does temperature actually measure? • Molecules are constantly moving- they have kinetic energy. Some are moving quickly, some slowly, up, down, sideways… They bounce off each other like dancers in the mosh pit. • What happens when you heat molecules?
What is “temperature” • Heated molecules have more energy. They speed up and bounce around more. If we heat a cup of water all of the molecules increase their speed and random motion. • The temperature of an object measures the average kinetic energy of its molecules.
Thermal Energy (aka Heat) • The thermal energy of an object or substance is the TOTAL (SUM) energy (potential and kinetic) of its molecules • Mass, properties of the substance and temperature are involved here • For example- one cup of boiling water has less thermal energy (heat) than one gallon of boiling water- even though both are at the same temperature: 100 degrees C (212 degrees F).
Kinetic Theory • Kinetic Theory helps explain heat energy and heat transfer. • It says: all matter is made of constantly moving particles. • Let’s see that in action!
Kinetic Theory • Lab Activity • Work in groups of 4; One paper/graph per two students • Materials: • Stopwatch • 250 ml glass beaker • 100 ml ice • Thermometer • Hot plate • Take temperature measurements every 30 seconds until Mr. Rasure says to stop • Graph results
Temperature Scales • The English system uses Fahrenheit to measure temperature. • In this scale water freezes at 32 degrees and water boils at 212 degrees. • Room temp is about 68 degrees.
Temperature Scales • Most of the world (and all scientists) use the Celsius scale- measured in degrees centigrade • Water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius and boils at 100 degrees. • Room temperature would be about 25 degrees.
Temperature Scales • To convert between the two use these formulas: • F = 1.8C + 32 • C = (F – 32) / 1.8
Temperature Scales • The Kelvin scale and absolute zero… • This temperature scale is named after the British mathematician and physicist William Thomson Kelvin, who proposed it in 1848. • Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature where nothing could be colder, and no heat energy remains in a substance. Absolute zero is the point at which molecules do not move!
Conversion Practice • 1. Body Temperature = 98.6 °F (Convert to °C) • 1. °C = (°F - 32) X 5/9 °C = (98.6 - 32) X 5/9 = 66.6 X 5/9 = 37°C • 2. Boiling Temp of Water = 212 °F (Convert to °C) • 2. °C = (°F - 32) X 5/9 °C = (212 - 32) X 5/9 = 180 X 5/9 = 100 °C • 3. Moderate Oven = 175 °C (Convert to °F) • 3. °F = (°C X 9/5) + 32 °F = (175 X 9/5) + 32 = 315 + 32 = 347 °F • 4. Hot Summer Day = 38 °C (Convert to °F) • 4. °F = (°C X 9/5) + 32 °F = (38 X 9/5) + 32 = 68.4 + 32 = 100.4 °F
How does a thermometer work? • Thermometers work through thermal expansion. • As molecules are heated the gain kinetic energy and the volume of a substance increases • The liquid in a thermometer (colored alcohol or mercury) expands and rises in the glass tube as it gets warmer. • Digital thermometers work because of electrical resistance. The warmer a wire the more resistance it has to the flow of electrons.
Specific Heat • Different substances require different amounts of heat to rise to the same temperature- a wood handled pot of boiling water is much cooler to the touch than a steel handled pot of boiling water. • Why? • Conductors and Insulators…
Specific Heat • Specific heat is a property of a substance that tells how much the temperature goes up when a given amount of heat is applied. • Specific Heat = amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of material 1 °C • A large/high specific heat means you have to put in a lot of energy for each degree increase in temperature.
Specific Heat • Water has a high specific heat • Water can “absorb” more heat/energy before its temperature rises…
Specific Heat Formulaas shown on TAKS chart . 8368 J/g °C Let’s Practice… for candy!
Specific Heat Ex: Calculate the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 78.2g of water from 10C to 35C. Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/(gC) Heat = [4.18 J/(gC)] (78.2g)(35C - 10C) = 8171.9 J

Thermodynamics- how heat moves • Thermal energy always travels from higher temperatures to lower temperatures • Thermal energy (heat) can be transferred in three ways: • Conduction • Convection • Radiation
Thermodynamics- how heat moves • Conduction- the transfer of heat by the direct contact of particles of matter
Thermodynamics- how heat moves • Heat continues to transfer until both objects reach thermal equilibrium (same temperature) • Materials that transfer heateasily are called conductors.Those that transfer thermalenergy poorly are calledinsulators.
Thermodynamics- how heat moves • Why would a Styrofoam cup not transfer the heat of hot coffee to your hand as quickly as a metal cup???
Thermodynamics- how heat moves • Convection- the transfer of heat by the actual motion of a fluid (liquid or gas) in the form of currents.
Thermodynamics- how heat moves • Radiation- the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves. • Does not require matter to travel through (and thus can travel through the vacuum of space) • Transfers heat in all directions • Requires no contact • Can go through transparent materials
Thermodynamics- how heat moves • Electromagnetic waves can be: • Infrared • Visible light • Ultraviolet • The heat we enjoy from the sun comes to us as electromagnetic waves (radiation)
