• P.S. 7: Heat and Heat Transfer

    • Illustrate and explain the results of the addition or subtraction of heat energy on the motion of molecules.
    • Distinguish between heat and temperature.
    • Compare and contrast Celsius and Kelvin temperature scales and describe absolute zero.
    • Analyze a time/temperature graph of a phase change experiment to determine the temperature at which the phase change occurs (freezing point, melting point, or boiling point).
    • Compare and contrast conduction, convection, and radiation and explain common examples.
    • Explain in simple terms how the principle of heat transfer applies to heat engines, thermostats, and refrigerators.
    • Design an investigation from a testable question related to heat transfer.
