Many people have a tendency to think that heat and temperature are the same thing. However, this is not true. Heat describes A.
energy that flows from warmer objects to cooler objects. B. the average amount of energy possessed by an object due to the potential energy stored in its bonds. C. the average amount of energy possessed by an object due to the motion of its particles. D. energy that flows from cooler objects to warmer objects.
B) energy that flows from warmer objects to cooler objects.
because temperature is a measure of the average amount of energy possessed by an object due to the random motions of its particles. Heat is the energy that flows from warmer objects to cooler objects. Heat cannot flow in the opposite direction.
There are several differences between a physical and chemical change in matter or substances. A physical change in a substance doesn't change what the substance is. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed.
