Across
- 1. The specific portion of matter or space being studied to determine if heat is moving in or out
- 5. The standard unit of energy in the International System of Units
- 10. A process that releases energy to the surroundings. In these reactions, the temperature of the surroundings increases
- 11. A state where two objects in contact have reached the same temperature and no longer exchange heat
- 12. The SI unit of temperature used in science
- 13. A process that absorbs energy from the surroundings. In these reactions, the temperature of the surroundings decreases
- 16. The rule that energy cannot be created or destroyed
Down
- 2. The total heat content of a system
- 3. The theoretical lowest possible temperature, where all molecular motion stops
- 4. The principle that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is only transformed from one form to another
- 6. A balanced chemical equation that includes the amount of heat energy absorbed or released
- 7. The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1°C
- 8. Reaction A process where chemical bonds in reactants are broken and new bonds in products are formed, resulting in a change in energy
- 9. The transfer of this energy from a warmer object to a cooler object due to a temperature difference
- 14. Energy transfer that occurs when a force moves an object
- 15. A measure of the disorder, randomness, or "spread-out-ness" of energy in a system
- 17. The capacity to do work or produce heat; it can change forms, but cannot be created or destroyed
