Kinetic energy definition
Energy of motion
Potential energy definition
stored energy
Chemical energy
A form of potential energy where chemical bonds of a molecule act as the storage medium
Chemicals release potential energy __ ____ ___ __ when they undergo a reaction to __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __
as heat, light, or work, form more stable products with more stable bonds
Thermal energy (Heat) definition
Energy transferred from one object to another Energy transferred from one object to another as a result of a temperature difference
Temperature definition
a measure of the kinetic energy of molecular motion
How is temperature measured
by determining the direction and magnitude of heat flow from one object to another
What is 1 joule?
2
Joules per calorie
3
calorie
one calorie is the amount of energy required to alorie is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree celsius
