known as the “Father of Thermodynamics”.

(a)  

25.

is rooted in qualitative ideas of “hot” and “cold” based on our sense of touch.

This establishes temperature as a fundamental and measurable property of matter.

(a)  

35.

states that the total increase in the energy of a system is equal to the increase in thermal energy plus the work done on the system.
