Thermal

Cards (29)

  • Temperature of a substance

     proportional to the average kinetic energy of particles in the substance
  • Temperature increases

    as energy is added
  • Temperature decreases
    as energy is removed
  • How is Temp.. measured in monoatomic gas

    by the translational kinetic energy of the atoms.
  • Define temp...
    a measure of the average kinetic energy
  • Energies associated with atomic motion
    Internal Energy
  • Internal Energy
    proportional to temperature
  • Define Internal Energy
    The energy of a substance due to both the random motions of its particles and to the potential energy
  • Ideal Gas
    Internal energy depends only on the temperature of the gas
  • Non Ideal Gases
    Other properties contribute to the internal energy.
  • Thermal Equilibrium
    Two bodies in physical contact with each other have identical temperatures
  • Thermal Equilibrium
    basis for measuring temperature with thermometers.
  • Thermal Expansion
    Increasing the temperature of a gas causes the volume of the gas to increase.
  • Matter
    Matter expands as temperature increases.
  • Coeffecint of Volume Expansion
    Thermal expansion characteristics of a material are indicated by the coefficient of volume expansion
  • Different Rates
    Gases have the largest values for coefficient of volume expansion, liquids have much smaller values, solids have the smallest
  • Thermal Equilibrium
    Any objects in thermal equilibrium lie between their initial temperatures.
  • To use Thermometer
    It must make use of a change in some physical property that corresponds to changing temperature, such as the volume of a gas or liquid or the pressure of a gas at constant volume
  • 1st Reference Point
    Thermometer is in thermal equilibrium with a mixture of water and ice at one atmosphere of pressure. This temperature is called the ice point or melting point of water and is 0°C.
  • 2nd Reference Point
    Thermometer is in thermal equilibrium with a mixture of steam and water at one atmosphere of pressure. This temperature is called the steam point or boiling point of water and is defined as 100°C
  • Temperature Scale
    Dividing the distance between the reference marks into equally spaced units called degrees
  • Fahrenheit to Celsius
    (°F − 32) × 5/9 =
  • Celsius to Fahrenheit
    (°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F
  • 32
    Indicates the difference between the ice-point value in each scale. The point of water freeze is 0.0 degrees on the Celsius scale and 32.0 degrees on the Fahrenheit scale.
  • Scales
    Celsius and Fahrenheit can have Positive - Negative or Zero values
  • Kelvin to Celsius
    K − 273.15 = °C
  • Celsius to Kelvin
    °C + 273.15K
  • Difference of Zero Point
    Thus,
  • Differences
