1.1 Temperature
Temperature is the measure of hotness and coldness of an object.
[However, coldness and hotness depends on our objective sense.
Therefore, we should define temperature in another subjective way]
Examples of temperature
Body temperature =
Room temperature =
Sun’s surface temperature =
Earth’s core temperature =
Melting point of water =
Boiling point of water =
Exercise:
0 oC = ______ K 100oC = ______ K 300K = _______ oC 273K =
_______ oC
1.2.2 Thermometer
Thermometer is the apparatus to measure temperature.
There are various kind of thermometer.
Liquid-in-glass thermometer makes use of the thermal expansion of
material.
Hot objects expand; Cold object contract.
Summary
Solid state Liquid state Gas state
distance Least Middle Largest
between
molecules
Potential Least Middle Largest
energy
Kinetic energy Least Middle Largest
Therefore,
When we compare the energy of 1kg 00C ice and 1kg 0oC water
Their temperatures are the same and hence their kinetic energy are
the same.
However, the distance between molecules in liquid state is larger
than that in solid state. Water has a higher potential energy than
ice.
Therefore, internal energy of water is larger
Ex.
Find the energy needed to change
10) 5 kg water from 300K to 350K
11) 0.1 kg water from 30 oC to 100 oC
12) 0.1 kg water from 100 oC to 30 oC
Ex.
Find the energy needed to change
13) 5 kg ice from 250K to 270K
14) 0.1 kg water from - 30 oC to 0 oC
15) 0.1 kg water from 0 oC to -30 oC
Cold object:
Temperature change = T - T1
Energy gained by cold object = m1 x c1 x (T - T1)
Hot object:
Temperature change = T2 - T
Energy loss by hot object = m2 x c2 x (T2 - T)
m1 c 1 T 1+ m2 c 2 T 2
T=
m1 c 1+ m2 c 2
E.g.
3 kg 40oC water is mixed with 5kg 60oC water
Specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J kg-1 oC -1
Cold object:
Temperature change = T - T1 = T – 40
Energy gained by cold object = m1 x c1 x (T - T1) = 3 x 4200 x (T –
40)
Hot object:
Temperature change = T2 – T = 60 – T
Energy loss by hot object = m2 x c2 x (T2 - T) = 5 x 4200 x (60 – T)
Or simply
m1 c 1 T 1+ m2 c 2 T 2
T=
m1 c 1+ m2 c 2
Ex.
Find final temperature of the following mixture.
16) 3 kg 60oC water is mixed with 5kg 60oC water
17) 1 kg 80oC water is mixed with 5kg 30oC water
18) 5 kg 30oC water is mixed with 4kg 80oC water
Or simply
m1 c 1 T 1+ m2 c 2 T 2
T=
m1 c 1+ m2 c 2
Ex.
Find final temperature of the following mixture.
16) 3 kg 60oC water is mixed with 5kg 60oC copper
17) 1 kg 80oC water is mixed with 5kg 300oC copper
18) 5 kg 30oC water is mixed with 4kg 180oC copper

Precaution:
(1) Add oil to the holes => improve thermal contact
(2) Totally immerse the heater
(3) Insert plastic plate under the metal / wrap with cotton
Error:
Heat loss to the surrounding + heat absorbed by apparatus =>

Precaution:
(1) Totally immerse the heater
(2) Add lid
Error:
Heat loss to the surrounding + heat absorbed by apparatus =>

Latent Heat
= energy needed to change the state
e.g.
Liquid water => Vapor OR Vapor => liquid water
Latent heat of vaporization
Eqn:
E=ml
Where m is the mass, l is the specific latent heat
