What to Focus On

  • Temperature measures hotness; heat is energy transferred due to temperature difference.
  • SI unit of heat is joule; SI unit of temperature is kelvin.
  • Fahrenheit and Celsius scales are fixed using ice point and steam point.

  • Boyle’s law: PV = constant at constant temperature.
  • Charles’ law: V/T = constant at constant pressure.
  • Ideal-gas equation: PV = μRT.

  • Linear expansion: Δl/l = α_lΔT.
  • Volume expansion: α_v = (ΔV/V)(1/ΔT).
  • For an ideal gas, α_v = 1/T.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Heat and temperature are the same thing.

In a temperature scale, any fixed points can be chosen without care, so ice point and steam point are equally exact for all purposes.

Fahrenheit and Celsius scales have the same number of equal intervals between fixed points.

Memory Tips

Fahrenheit, Celsius, and fixed points

Fahrenheit-Celsius conversion relation

Absolute zero and Kelvin scale
