Heat things up in your physical science class with this interactive lesson series on thermodynamics. Through a series of class demonstrations and experiments, young scientists learn how heat is transferred through conduction,...

With this learning module, students will understand the difference between heat and temperature, convert temperatures among different temperature scales, and calculate specific heat.

By the end of this section, you will be able to do define heat as a transfer of energy.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Definition of heat and how thermal energy is transferred.

By the end of this section, you will be able to observe heat transfer and change in temperature and mass and to calculate final temperature after heat transfer between two objects.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this online lesson students will be introduced to conditions required for an ideal gas. They will also learn about the similarities and differences between...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students explore the relationship between heat and energy transfer, and learn about the three ways that heat can be transferred between objects of different...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this online lesson students will describe how the macroscopic properties of a thermodynamic system such as temperature, specific heat, and pressure are related to...

By the end of this section, you will be able to examine heat transfer and calculate final temperature from heat transfer.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Definition of temperature, how it is measured and the three temperature scales.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students explore the concept of specific heat, learn how it is calculated, and find out how different materials have different specific heat values.
