internal energy Flashcards
what is internal energy
internal energy is The energy of the particles of a substance due to their individual motion and positions
what is the sum of the internal energy particles
the sum of internal energy particles is the sum of the
kinetic energy they have due to their individual motions relative to each other, and the potential energy they have due to their individual positions relative to each other.
what happens when you increase the temperature of a substance
when you increase the temperature of a substance the internal energy also increases
how might the potential energy particles increase
they might increase if the substance is boiled or malted
how might the kinetic energy particles increase
the kinetic energy particles might increase if the substance is heated
