Heat, Temperature, and Thermal Energy

Mass is

• the amount of space something takes up
• the amount of matter in an object
• stored energy
• increased kinetic energy

Heat is

• the  movement of thermal energy from a warmer to cooler object
• moving particles
• the average kinetic energy of the particles that are in a substance
• the  amount of matter in an object

The sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy of the particles that make up something is

• temperature
• heat
• thermal energy
• matter

A hot iron is turned off and cools down to room temperature.  The iron cools because....

• the iron does not hold heat very well
• the room transfers cold energy to the iron
• heat energy is transferred from the warm iron to the cooler room
• the thermal energy is destroyed during an interaction with the room
