Matter and Energy Pg
All physical and chemical changes involve a change in energy Energy goes in or energy comes out. If energy goes in it is endothermic Ice melting If energy comes out it is exothermic Water freezing, paper burning
Law of conservation of energy Energy cannot be created or destroyed It can only change form from one type to another
Heat is a form of energy Heat is the amount of particle movement The faster the particles move, the more heat there is Heat makes the particles move faster Kinetic energy is the energy of movement Heat is the amount of kinetic energy the particles have
Different scales We use Celsius and Kelvin We use Kelvin in all calculations K = o C + 273
