Temperature
The temperature of an object is a measure of how cold or hot that
object is. More precisely, the temperature of an object is a measure of
the average kinetic energy of the atoms and molecules of that object.
A hotter object has faster molecular vibrations. Temperature is a scalar
quantity.
Temperature Scales
Fahrenheit and Rankin (in the American system of units)
Celsius and Kelvin (in the Metric System)
Fahrenheit and Celsius are regular scales.
Rankin and Kelvin are absolute scales.
Absolute Scales:
The basis for absolute scales (Kelvin and Rankin scales) is the
temperature at which molecular motion ceases and stops. This
temperature cannot actually be reached; however, with great cooling,
temperatures very close to it have been reached. Experiments have
shown that when a gas is cooled down, its volume decreases.
At constant pressure, the volume decrease for a gas, is proportional to
the temperature decrease. In other words, The ratio V/T remains
constant. That means that if V( the gas volume) is plotted versus T
(the gas temperature) while pressure is kept constant, the graph is a
straight line as shown below:
Heat
Heat is a form of energy that transfers due to a
temperature difference.
Units of Heat
The familiar unit often heard is "calorie."
One calorie (1 cal)is the amount of heat energy that can
raise the temperature of1 gramof pure water by1 oC.
Parallel to this definition is that of kilocalorie (kcal).
1 kcalis the amount of heat energy that can raise the
temperature of1 kgof purewaterby1 oC.
A non-Metric unit for heat energy isBtu(British thermal
unit).
1 Btuis the amount of heat energy that can raise the
temperature of1 lbmof pure water by1 oF.
The specific heat (c) of a substance is the amount of heat that 1kg of
substance takes to warm up by 1oC. On this basis, the specific heat of
water is 1 kcal /(kg oC). The specific heat of a few elements are given
below:
Cwater =1.000 kcal / ( kg oC) or, cwater = 1.000 cal /(g oC)
ciron = 0.108 kcal / ( kg oC) or, ciron = 0.108 cal /(g oC)
cAl = 0.215 kcal / ( kg oC) or, cAl = 0.215 cal /(g oC)
Cbrass = 0.0924 kcal / ( kg oC) or, cbrass= 0.0924 cal /(g oC)
Heat calculation:
When heat is given to a pure substance or taken from it, its
temperature starts changing if a phase change does not start. During
a phase change (solid to liquid, liquid to solid, liquid to vapor, or
vapor to liquid ),temperature remains constant. We will look at the
following two cases:
1) Heat calculation for temperature change
2) Heat calculation for phase change
No Phase Change

Example :
Calculate the amount heat that must be given to 2.14 kg of iron to
warm up from 24.0 oC to 88.0 oC.
Solution:
Q = McT
Q =( 2.14kg )[0.108 kcal/(kgoC)]( 88 - 24 )
o
C= 14.8 kcal
Example :
Calculate the amount heat that must be taken from 5.00 kg of
Aluminum to cool it down from 230oC to 30oC.
Solution:
Q = McT
Q =(5.00kg )[0.215 kcal / ( kg oC )](30 - 230 )oC = - 215 kcal
Example :
37.0 cal of heat is given to 2.00 gram of water at 12.0 oC. Find its
final temperature.
Solution:
Q = McT
T = Q / Mc
T = (37cal) / [(2gr)(1cal/ gr oC)] = 18.5oC
Tf - Ti = 18.5 C
Tf - 12.0 oC = 18.5 oC
Tf = 30.5 oC
Thermal Equilibrium
Example :
A 65-gram piece of aluminum at 180 oC is removed from a stove and
placed in 45 grams of water initially at 22 oC. Find the equilibrium
temperature (Teq).
Solution:
-[ heat loss by hotter objects ] = heat gain by colder objects
Q = McT
-Mc [Tf - Ti] Al = Mc[Tf - Ti] water
- (65)(0.215)(Teq - 180) = (45)(1.00)(Teq - 22)
-14(Teq - 180) = (45)(Teq - 22)
-14Teq + 2520 = 45Teq - 990
3510 = 59Teq
Teq = 59 oC
Example :
A 225-gram piece of hot iron is removed from an electric oven at an
unknown temperature. It is known that the iron piece has been in the
oven long enough so that its initial temperature can be thought as the
temperature of the oven. The iron piece is placed in 75.0 grams of
water
that is held by a 45.0-gram aluminum container initially at an equilibrium
temperature of 25.0 oC. The final equilibrium temperature of iron,
aluminum, and water becomes 41.0 oC. Find the initial temperature
of iron (oven). Assume that the whole system is thermally isolated
from the surroundings.

Solution:

-Mc [Tf- Ti]iron= Mc [Tf- Ti]Al+ Mc [Tf- Ti]water
-(225)(0.108)(41-Ti)=(45)(0.215)(41-25) +

Example :
How much heat should be given to 250 gr of ice at 0oC
to convert it to water at 40.oC? The latent heat of
freezing/melting for water isLf=80cal/gr and the
specific heat of water is 1 cal/[groC].
Solution:In this problem, the heat calculation involves
a phase change and a temperature change.
Q = M Lf + Mc (Tf- Ti)
Q=(250)(80)+(250)(1)(40-0)=30,000cal

Example :
2650 cal of heat is given to 225 grams of ice at-12.0 oC.
Find the final temperature of the result.
Solution:All of the ice may not melt. Let's first
calculate the heat necessary for the ice to warm up to 0
o
C-ice.
Q = Mc ( Tf- Ti) = (225gr)(0.480 cal/groC)[0-(12.0)]oC = 1300 cal
The remaining heat is 2650cal - 1300cal = 1350 cal
Now, let's see if this heat is enough to melt the ice
Q = MLf= (225gr)(80.cal /gr ) = 18000 cal
No, 1350 cal is not enough to melt all of the ice. We
need to see how much of the ice does melt.
Q = MLf
1350cal = M (80cal / gr)
M =17 grams.
The final result is a mixture of
17 grams of water and (225 - 17) grams
of ice, of course both at 0oC.
Example :
26500 cal of heat is given to 225 grams of ice at-12.0 oC.
Find the final temperature.
Solution:
All of the ice may not melt. First calculate the needed heat
for the ice to warm up to 0 oC-ice.
Q = Mc ( Tf- Ti) =(225gr)(0.480cal/(groC)[0.0 - (-12.0)]oC
= 1300 cal
The remaining heat is 26500cal - 1300cal = 25200 cal
Now, let's see if this heat is enough to melt the ice.
Q = MLf= (225gr)(80cal/gr ) = 18000 cal
Yes,25200 cal is enough to melt all of the ice.
The remaining heat is 25200cal - 18000cal =7200 cal.This
heat warms up water from 0oC to Tf.
Q = Mc ( Tf- Ti)
7200cal = (225gr)(1 cal/gr oC)( Tf-0oC )
Tf- 0.0oC = 7200 / 225 = 32oC
Tf = 32oC
The final result is 225 grams of water at 32 oC.
