If something like a metal gets very hot in the sun, that is an indicator of this.
What is a low specific heat?
200
The heat energy required to raise the temperature of a mass of a substance a given temperature interval.
What is specific heat?
200
This is the change in temperature of an object whose initial temperature is 65 degrees and reaches a final temperature of 40 degrees.
What is -15 degrees?
200
A conductor is something that easily allows heat transfer. This is something that slows down heat transfer
What is an insulator?

The point at which solid and liquid reach an equilibrium point.
What is the melting or freezing point?
300
A measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a material.
What is temperature?
300
This is the specific heat of liquid water.
What is 4.18 Joules/gC or 1.0 cal/gC?

Of the following, this has a higher specific heat capacity. Water and sand
What is water?
300
How many Joules in 12 calories.
What is 50.2 Joules?

According to the graph on the board, this reaction is
What is exothermic?
400
The energy transferred from one place to another by virtue of a temperature difference.
What is heat?
400
This is the amount of heat gained by an object of mass 10 g, a specific heat of 5, and a change in temperature of -10. (YOU MUST INCLUDE THE CORRECT UNIT!)
What is -500 J?
400
This type of reaction can occur spontaneously
What is an exothermic reaction?
400
There are this many food calories in 50 Joules.
What is 0.01195?

During a phase change from solid to liquid, rather than increasing the temperature of the reaction, the energy is used for
What is breaking bonds?
500
Another name for the law of conservation of energy, the idea that in a closed system energy loss will equal energy gain. Also, that a change in the internal energy of a closed system is equal to the amount of heat supplied to the system, minus the amount of work done by the system
What is the first law of thermodynamics?
