    68°F.
  • Which is equal to a temperature of 50°F?
    10°C.
  • What is the difference between heat and temperature?
    Temperature measures average kinetic energy; heat is the transfer of thermal energy.
  • What characteristics determine how easily two substances change temperature? Check all that apply.
    Specific heat capacity and mass.
  • The temperature of water in a beaker is 45°C. What does this measurement represent?
    It represents the average kinetic energy of the water molecules.
  • Which of the following best describes temperature?
    Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles.
  • Which of the following temperature changes are equivalent?
    A change of 1°C is equivalent to a change of 1 K.
  • What is the temperature?
    Temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
  • The deep body temperature of a healthy person is 37°C. What is it in kelvins?

  • What does temperature measure?
    The average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
  • At what temperature does water freeze?
    0°C (32°F).
  • Which is the best reason for using a temperature probe instead of a simple laboratory thermometer?
