Temperature

• Temperature is defined as the common physical property that two objects must have when they are in thermal equilibrium with each other.
• Two objects are said to be in thermal equilibrium with each other if there is no net transfer of heat between them.
• Specific heat capacity is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1 kelvin.
• Specific latent heat is the amount of energy needed to change the state of 1kg of a substance from solid to liquid or liquid to gas without changing its temperature.
