Across
- 3. the amount of heat needed to change the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 celsius degree.
- 4. the study of heat and its transformation into different forms of energy.
- 6. the thermal energy that flows from a substance if higher temperature to a substance of lower temperature, commonly measured in calories or joules.
- 8. the lowest possible temperature that a substance may have the temperature at which molecules of the substance have their minimum kinetic energy.
- 9. the transfer of energy by means of electromagnetic waves.
Down
- 1. no system can reach absolute zero.
- 2. the measure of the energy dispersal of a system. Whenever energy freely transforms from one form into another, the direction of transformation is toward a state of greater disorder and, therefore, toward greater entropy.
- 3. the transfer of thermal energy in a gas or liquid by means of currents in the heated fluid. The fluid flows, carrying energy with it.
- 5. the transfer of thermal energy by molecular and electronic collisions within a substance.
- 7. a measure of the hotness and coldness of substances, related too the average translational kinetic energy per molecule in a substance; measured in degrees Celsius, in degrees Fahrenheit, or in kelvins.
