Heat, Temperature, and Phases

Misconception Heat and temperature are

#1 the same thing
 Heat is energy measured in
Joules (J), while
Truth temperature is the average
kinetic energy of the
particles in a substance
Misconception Heat and cold are
#2 substances
 Heat is the energy that the
particles gain or lose
Truth according to temperature
difference
 Boiling is the maximum
Misconception temperature a substance
#3
can attain
 Substances in their gaseous
phase have a higher
Truth temperature than when it is
boiling
 When water is at its boiling
Misconception point, the temperature
#4
constantly rises
 (Depending on pressure
and purity of the liquid
water) 100 C is the
Truth maximum temperature of
liquid water. Once it
exceeds this, it becomes a
gas
Misconception The bubbles in boiling
#5 water contain air
 The bubbles in boiling
Truth water contain water vapor
(steam)
  There are three gas laws:
 Boyle's
 Charles
 Gay-Lussac

For Tonight..
 I will have some videos on my
blog. Watch the videos and be
able to explain what EACH law
means
