The more particles a substance has at a given temperature,

• the higher its temperature

• the more thermal energy it has

• the more degrees it has

• the more Kelvin it has

Heat transfer occurs (Heat travels from...)

• in many directions.

• both from warm objects to colder ones and from cold objects to warmer ones.

• only from warm objects to colder ones.

• only from cold objects to warmer ones.
