There are much better explanations than this.Hemant said:What is temperature?
The simple definition I get in books is that it is the measure of coldness or hotness,but what in real it is at the atomic level what does happens to the atoms when we we work on substance by heating.
I have seen it and resnick halliday and the study material I got from my institute.pinball1970 said:There are much better explanations than this.
Where have you looked?
It is a macroscopic property of large collections of molecules. It has the property that if two such collections are put in contact passively, heat energy will flow from the one with a higher temperature to the one with the lower.Hemant said:What is temperature?

Post what you asked here mentioning atomic level in a Google search, science daily / and quora will give you some answers. I am not allowed to just give you the answer. Getting used to streamlining your searches, key words and targeting the best sites is more important then just getting the answer.Hemant said:I have seen it and resnick halliday and the study material I got from my institute.

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. It is a physical quantity that indicates how hot or cold something is.
Temperature is typically measured using a thermometer, which contains a liquid (such as mercury or alcohol) that expands or contracts in response to changes in temperature. The thermometer's scale is based on the freezing and boiling points of water.
At higher temperatures, the particles in a substance have more kinetic energy and therefore move faster. This can cause changes in the atomic behavior, such as increased collisions and more rapid reactions.
Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature, at which all molecular motion stops. It is equivalent to 0 Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius.
Temperature plays a significant role in determining the state of matter. At higher temperatures, substances can transition from solid to liquid to gas, and at lower temperatures, they can transition back to a solid. This is because temperature affects the strength of intermolecular forces between particles in a substance.
