Down
- 1. A material used for saucepan handles because it does not easily transfer thermal energy.
- 2. A measure of how hot or cold something is, often recorded in Celsius.
- 3. This metal is often used in saucepans due to its excellent thermal conductivity.
- 4. This element, once used in thermometers, is now avoided due to its toxicity.
- 5. A surface colour that absorbs more infrared radiation, often drying faster.
- 6. The process by which thermal energy is transferred in liquids and gases, causing them to circulate.
- 8. The type of radiation that the Sun emits, which warms the Earth.
