Thermal Energy Review

thermal energy:

• a group of atoms joined together in a particular way

• the total kinetic energy of all the molecules that make up a sample

• a balanced state in which a system is stable, such as when two or more samples are at the same temperature

• the ability to make things move or change

transfer:

• to move from one object to another or one place to another

• adding all the numbers in a list and then dividing by the number of numbers in the list

• to reach a conclusion using evidence and reasoning

• a measure of how hot or cold something is
