Heat Capacity

3. Heat the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one degree Celsius.
6. Energy the total energy contained within a system, including kinetic and potential energy of the particles that make up the system.
8. the branch of physics that deals with the relationships between heat and other forms of energy.
10. Energy the total energy of all the particles in a substance, related to temperature and heat.
11. Conductivity a measure of a material's ability to conduct heat, usually expressed in watts per meter per Kelvin (W/m·K).
12. Transfer the movement of thermal energy from one object or substance to another due to a temperature difference.
13. the SI unit of energy, often used to quantify heat energy in scientific contexts.
14. a state in which opposing forces or influences are balanced, often referring to thermal equilibrium in temperature.

1. a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, perceived as how hot or cold something is.
2. a material that allows heat to flow easily through it, facilitating the transfer of thermal energy.
4. Capacity the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of an object by one degree Celsius.
5. Change the transition of a substance from one state of matter to another, such as from solid to liquid (melting) or liquid to gas (evaporation).
6. a material that does not easily allow heat to pass through it, helping to retain thermal energy.
7. Heat the amount of heat energy absorbed or released during a phase change without a change in temperature.
9. Energy the energy an object possesses due to its motion, which increases with temperature in a substance.
