Heat and temperature are not the same physical quantity. Heat is the cause and temperature is the effect. Heat is measured in joule and temperature in kelvin.

Q = m s @

Q - the quantity of heat, @ is the temperature difference.

They are proportional.

So expecting both to be the same is almost meaning less.

If suppose 'm*s' happens to be 1, then Q and @ will be having the same numerical value. Yet they are different physical quantities.

When heating two substance with same heat the temperature raises on two substance are different why?

Each substance has a different heat capacity, which means they need different amounts of energy to change temperature by the same amount (for a given mass). If the same amount of energy is input, then the temperature difference will also be different.


You apply the same amount of heat to five grams of substance a and five grams of substance b the temperature of both substances increase by the same amount what can you conclude?

You can conclude that both substances have the same specific heat capacity. This means that they require the same amount of energy to change their temperature by a certain amount.


Temperature is not a measurement of the amount of heat?

True! Temperature is the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance.Heat is the total kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance. See the difference?For example, if you double the amount of a substance, then you have double the heat energy, but the temperature stays the same.


Substance A has a higher heat capacity than does substance B and substance B has a higher heat capacity than does substance C. If you add the same amount of heat to all three which order shows the pro?

The order in which the substances will exhibit the highest increase in temperature is C, B, A. This is because substance C has the lowest heat capacity, so it will increase in temperature the most with the same amount of heat added. Substance A, with the highest heat capacity, will increase the least.


Are temperature and thermal heat the same thing?

Temperature and thermal heat are related but not the same. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance, while thermal heat is the total amount of internal energy contained in a substance due to the movement of its particles. Temperature is a specific measurement, while thermal heat reflects the overall energy content of a substance.


When you apply the same amount of heat 5 grams of water and 5 grams of the water the temperature of the limit increases more than the water what can you conclude?

If you apply the same amount of heat to 5 grams of water and 5 grams of another substance, and the temperature of the other substance increases more than that of the water, you can conclude that the other substance has a lower specific heat capacity than water. Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance, so a lower value means that it requires less energy to achieve the same temperature increase.


What is meant by the heat of fusion or substance?

That's the amount of heat you have to add to the solid form at the melting temperature in order to melt it to the liquid form at the same temperature. Looking at it the other way: It's the amount of heat you have to remove from the liquid at the freezing temperature in order to freeze it solid at the same temperature.


Why same amount of heat supplied to same amount of different substances does not produce the same increase in temperature?

There is a formula in physics ΔQ=m*c*ΔT, where m is the mass of the substance you are heating, ΔQ is the heat you supply to the substance, c is the specific heat which has a different value for different substances and ΔT is the change in temperature. If your substances are different and they have the same mass then by supplying the same amount of heat the change in temperature will be different.


Is the heat of vaporization the same as the boiling point?

No, the heat of vaporization is the amount of energy required to change a substance from a liquid to a gas, while the boiling point is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas.


What is the latent heat of fusion?

The amount of energy it takes to boil a substance


When heat flows from one substance to another what happens to the temperature of the substance receiving the heat?

If heat leaves a substance, it becomes colder (temperature falls) and when heat enters it becomes warmer (temperature climbs). Note that, because of entropy, heat will only go from warm to cold things.


Does temperature measure heat energy?

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, not the total heat energy. Heat energy is the total energy associated with the movement of particles in a substance. Temperature is one way to quantify the amount of heat energy present in a system, but it is not the same as measuring the total heat energy.
