Heat And Temperatures Flashcards
The result of movement of tiny particles in solids liquids and gases is called
Heat energy
Flow of heat is due to
Temperature difference between 2 objects
The S.I unit for heat is
Joules
Increase in K.E causes
Rise in temperature
A body becomes cold when
It looses energy
The degree of hotness or coldness of a body is called
Temperature
A thermometer is used to measure
Temperature
Two objects are in thermal contact when
Energy can be exchanged btw them
When two objects in thermal contact cease to exchange energy by process of heat is called
Thermal equilibrium
Triple point of water is at what temperature
273.16K or 0.01°C
A scale of temperature should have
Thermometric property
To fixed points
A numerical scale
Temperature where all thermometers show the same reading in called
Fixed point
Ice point and triple point of water differ by
0.01K
One Fahrenheit scale represents
100/180 or 5/9
Temperature scale which is based on properties of local gases which only exist in theory is
Kelvin/absolute/thermodynamic temperature scale
Temperature at which the pressure of an ideal gas becomes zero is
0K or absolute zero
The combination of temperature and pressure at which at which liquid water, gaseous water and solid water coexist in equilibrium is called
Triple point of water
At 0.01°C and 4.58mmHg
Conversion from °C to °F
Tf= ⁹/⁵ °C + 32
Conversion from °F to °C
Tc = ⁵/⁹ + (°F - 32)
Conversion from K to °F
Tf = ⁹/⁵ (K - 273.15) + 32
Conversion from °F to K
Tk = 273.15 + ⁵/⁹ (°F - 32)
Other temperature scales includes
Reaumer
Rankine
A physical quantity which changes with change in temperature is known as
Thermometric property
