Chemical Reactions and Heat

the movement of enery from warmer substances to cooler substances

• temperature

• thermal energy

• heat

• Celsius

the total amaount of energy in any matter

• insulator

• convection

• radiation

• thermal energy

the average motion of particles in a substance

hot air -makes particales move faster

cool air -makes particales move slower

• temperature

• insulator

• convection

• heat

temperature scale used mainly in the US

• celsius

• fahrenheit

• heat

• conductor

metric temperature scale

• heat

• fahrenheit

• heat

• celsius

the flow of heat energy from one subject to another by direct contact between two objects

• conductor

• conduction

• insulator

• convection

a substance that heat travels through easily

Example: metal (cooper)

• thermal energy

• conductor

• conduction

• heat

a substance used to slow down the transfer of heat

Example: wooden handle on cooking pan

• exothermic

• endothermic

• radiation

• insulator

the flow of thermal energy that occurs when a warm liquid or gas moves from one place to another

• convection

• insulator

• heat

• temperature

the transfer of energy from one place to another without the use of matter

• radiation

• energy

• heat
