energy.
They have the potential to contract when
cooled and expand when heated. They also
have kinetic energy when the molecules are
actually contracting or expanding.
When you touch a hot surface, there is a
transfer of kinetic energy from the molecules in
the hot surface to the molecules in your hand. If
you touch ice, energy from the molecules in
your hand to the molecules in the ice.
Heat
Transfer of Energy
Do Now 4/20
1.) Does heat flow from a higher temperature substance
to a lower temperature substance OR from a lower
temperature substance to a higher temperature
substance.
2.) When two substances are in contact, what type of
energy is transferred from one substance to the
other?
3.) What is the freezing point for water in degrees
Celsius? What is the boiling point for water in
degrees Celsius?
4.) When are two substances in thermal contact?
Thermal Equilibrium
Internal Energy
Molecules in matter have potential
and kinetic energy.
The total of all the energies present
in matter is called internal energy.
Matter does not contain heat; it
contains energy, in particular
internal energy.

Slice of cheese
pizza = 230 Calories
Cheeseburger
= 400 Calories
Since the cheeseburger
contains more Calories,
the cheeseburger gives
off more heat when it is
burned.
Banana =
170 Calories
Apple = 80

The BANANA gives
off more heat when it
is burned.
Heat Transfer
Q = mcT
1.) Suppose we want to know the number
of calories needed to raise the
temperature of 1 liter of water by 15C.
The specific heat capacity for water, c, is
1 cal/gC and the mass of 1 liter of water
is 1 kilogram or 1000 grams.
2.) Calculate the number of calories of
heat needed to change 500 grams of
water by 50 Celsius degrees.

Do Now 4/21
1.) Does a thermometer show its own
temperature?
2.) What is thermal equilibrium?
3.) If you drop a hot rock into a pail of water,
the temperature of the rock and the water will
change until both are equal. The rock will
cool and the water will warm. Does the
same principle hold true if the rock is
dropped into a large lake? Explain.
4.) What is specific heat capacity?
Thermal Expansion

Bimetallic Strip
On loose leaf:
How does a thermostat use a
bimetallic strip to function?
The temperature at which water freezes and boils (in degrees Celsius and
Fahrenheit
Kinetic energy is transferred between molecules when temperature of a
substance changes. Potential energy is the stored energy of the molecules
(before they actually expand and contract)
Thermal contact and Thermal equilibrium
The temperature at which water is the most dense
Which contracts/expands the most when temperature decreases/increases:
solids, liquids, or gases?
Specific heat capacity
Thermal expansion how is the breaking of bridges and concrete sidewalks
prevented?
Matter does not contain heat. It contains internal energy.
Heat flow
Bimetallic strips how does a thermostat use a bimetallic strip to function?
Heat transfer (Q = mcT)
The temperature at which water freezes (in degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit)
Kinetic energy is transferred between molecules when temperature of a substance
changes. Potential energy is the stored energy of the molecules (before they actually
expand and contract)
When temperature increases, a substance expands, which means the molecules move
farther apart. When temperature decreases, molecules move closer together.
Thermal contact and Thermal equilibrium
The temperature at which water is the most dense
Which contracts/expands the most when temperature decreases/increases: solids, liquids,
or gases?
Specific heat capacity (water has a high specific heat capacity; substances that have low
specific heat capacities heat up quickly & cool down quickly)
Thermal expansion how is the breaking of bridges and concrete sidewalks prevented?
Matter does not contain heat. It contains internal energy.
Heat flows from warmer substance to cooler substance.
