Thermodynamics

1. Energy due to motion (ex. Apple falling on the ground)
6. Energy stored in the bonds of molecules (ex. Energy stored in food)
7. Energy can’t be created or destroyed; it only changes form
11. The study of heat and its interconversions as it changes form
13. Energy that is stored in an object due to its position above the ground
15. Energy due to the movement of charges (ex. electricity)
17. System that does not allow the transfer of either mass or energy
18. The capacity to do work, measured in units of Joules or calories
19. Heat transfer by movement of a liquid or gas (ex. hot air rising, water boiling)
20. Measure of the total kinetic energy from high to low temperatures
22. Everything outside of the system
24. System that can exchange mass and energy with its surroundings
26. Unit of measurement for temperature
27. Study of heat changes in chemical reactions
29. Energy in the form of heat due to the movement of atoms or molecules
30. Energy transfer through space or matter in the form of waves (ex. heat from the sun)

2. Unit of measurement for heat, abbreviation: cal
3. Container that is used to study heat flow
4. Process that absorbs heat
5. Energy due to the movement of charges (ex. electricity)
6. System that allows the transfer of energy but not mass with its surroundings
8. Heat transfer due to direct contact (ex. pan heated on a stove)
9. ___ Law of Thermodynamics - energy is conserved
10. Part of the universe being studied
12. Unit of measurement for heat, abbreviation: J
14. Device that measures changes in temperature
16. Measure of the average kinetic energy
21. Energy stored in the nucleus of atoms (ex. unstable nucleus splits to release radiation)
23. Energy from the sun
25. Process that releases heat
28. Heat at constant pressure; units: Joules or Kilojoules
