Identification: Identify what is being asked or described by the following.

Heat 1. Refers to the transfer of energy from one body to another due to a difference in in
temperature.

Joule 2. The SI unit of heat.

Temperature 3. A measurement of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a body.

Kelvin 4. The SI unit of temperature.

Conduction 5. Occurs when heat passes through a solid metal.

Convection 6. Occurs when a large amount of heated liquid or a gas moves from one part of the
fluid to another.

Convection 7. Refers to the circulating warm air and warm liquid.

Radiation 8. The transfer of heat in the form of electromagnetic waves.

Specific Heat 9. The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of substance
by one degree.

Calorimetry 10. The measurement of heat changes.

Problem Solving: Show your complete solution.
1. When you eat a slice of white bread, your body can extract 6.3 x 10 4 Cal from it. What is the
equivalent of this of this amount of heat in joules?

= 1 J = 1 m*N = 1 kg*m2/s2
= 263592 J

2. Convert the following to degrees Celsius:

a. 98 °F = (98°F − 32) × 5/9 = 36.67 °C
b. 345 K= 345K − 273.15 = 71.85°

3. Convert the following to Fahrenheit:

a. 43.5 °C = (43.5°C × 9/5) + 32 = 110.3°F
b. 297 K = (297K − 273.15) × 9/5 + 32 = 74.93°F

4. Convert the following to K

a. 35.5 °C = 35.5°C + 273.15 = 308.65K
b. 385 °F = (385°F − 32) × 5/9 + 273.15 = 469.26K

5. Your parents drove to Batangas for a vacation. Your mother accidentally left her silver
wedding ring inside the car. The ring has a mass of 1.45 grams. The initial temperature of the
ring is 20 °C, but the temperature is increased to 38.5 °C because of the heat of the sun. What is
the amount of the heat absorbed by the ring?

Q = mc▲T
M =1.45 g
c=0.056 cal /g *°C
▲T = 38.5 - 20
= 18.5 °C

1.45(0.056 cal/g*°C *18.5°C)

= 1.50 cal

6. What is the specific heat (of a substance if 148 kJ of heat is needed to raise the temperature of
5.50 kg of the substance from 18 °C to 33.6 °C?
c = Q/m∆T
c = Q/ (m × (t(f) — t(i)))
c = 148kJ/ (5.50 kg × (33.6° C — 18° C))
c = 148 kJ/ (5.50 kg × 15.6° C) = 1.72494172 J/kg*°C
c = 1.72494172 × 1000 J/1 kJ = 1724 J/kg*°C
c = 1724 J/kg*°C

7. How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 25-kg Copper from 21 °C to 85 °C?

C = 616,00 J / (25 kg) (64 K)

C = 385 J/kg*K
8. Application: What happens to particles when heat is absorbed?
- when heat is absorbed by a particle the bonds inside them to weaken which leads to a change in
their state

9. Application: What happens to liquid when heated?

- if a liquid is heated the particles inside it move faster and faster, and this movement makes the
liquid expand. The most energetic particles at the surface escape from the surface of the liquid as
a vapour as it gets warmer. Liquids evaporate faster as they heat up and more particles have
enough energy to break away
