  1. Temperature and Specific heat energy

  2. Thermal Energy A. Temperature & Heat 1. Temperature is related to the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.

  3. 2. SI unit for temp. is the Kelvin a. K = C + 273 (10C = 283K) b. C = K – 273 (10K = -263C) 3. Thermal Energy – the total of all the kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in a substance.

  4. 4. Thermal energy relationships a. As temperature increases, so does thermal energy (because the kinetic energy of the particles increased). b. Even if the temperature doesn’t change, the thermal energy in a more massive substance is higher (because it is a total measure of energy).

  5. Cup gets cooler while hand gets warmer 5. Heat a. The flow of thermal energy from one object to another. b. Heat always flows from warmer to cooler objects. Ice gets warmer while hand gets cooler

  6. 6. calorie – amount of heat energy Needed to heat one gram of H2O one Degree Celsius. Dietary Calories are capitalized, they equal 1000 calories.

  7. 7. Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of a material by one degree (C or K). 1) C water = 4184 J / kg C 2) C sand = 664 J / kg C This is why land heats up quickly during the day and cools quickly at night and why water takes longer.

  8. Why does water have such a high specific heat? water metal Water molecules form strong bonds with each other; therefore it takes more heat energy to break them. Metals have weak bonds and do not need as much energy to break them.

  9. How to calculate changes in thermal energy Q = m x T x Cp Q = change in thermal energy m = mass of substance T = change in temperature (Tf – Ti) Cp = specific heat of substance

  10. Common specific heats • Steam = 2.00 J/g °C • water = 4.18 J/g °C • Ice = 2.11 J/g °C • Copper = 0.38 J/g °C • Iron = 0.45 J/g °C

  11. 8. A calorimeter is used to help measure the specific heat of a substance. First, mass and temperature of water are measured Knowing its Q value, its mass, and its T, its Cp can be calculated Then heated sample is put inside and heat flows into water This gives the heat lost by the substance T is measured for water to help get its heat gain
