It really depends on your instructor or textbook and how fussy they want to be. If you wanted to be as clear as possible, how would you write a temperature interval?mopar969 said:Ooops I forgot to type in the option for c. After reading the link above provided by a PF member It says that options a and b can both be used. Therefore the answer to this question is then D. Is this correct.
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. It is often described as a measure of how hot or cold something is.
Temperature is typically measured using a thermometer, which contains a temperature-sensitive material such as mercury or alcohol. The substance expands or contracts in response to changes in temperature, allowing for a numerical temperature reading.
Heat is the transfer of energy from one object to another due to a difference in temperature. Temperature, on the other hand, is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
The most common units of temperature are Celsius (°C), Fahrenheit (°F), and Kelvin (K). Celsius and Fahrenheit are based on the freezing and boiling points of water, while Kelvin is based on absolute zero, the coldest possible temperature in the universe.
Temperature can affect matter in many ways. For example, it can cause substances to change phase (solid, liquid, gas) or expand and contract. It also affects the rate of chemical reactions and the behavior of particles in a substance.
