Explain the difference between heat and temperature?(3 points)
1. Heat is the total energy present in a substance, while temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. Heat is measured in joules or calories, while temperature is measured in degrees Celsius, Fahrenheit, or Kelvin.
2. Heat is a form of energy that flows from a higher temperature object to a lower temperature object, seeking thermal equilibrium. On the other hand, temperature is a measure of the intensity of heat or the sensation of hotness or coldness that is felt.
3. Heat depends on the mass and type of substance, while temperature is a property of the substance itself. This means that two substances can have the same temperature, but one may have more heat energy if it has a greater mass or different specific heat capacity.
