Temperature: A measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles in matter.
Important terms to know:
Temperature: A measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles in matter. Low temperatures = low kinetic

Matter can change from any state to any other state by adding energy.
The temperature does not change until the change of state is complete.
Thermal Expansion:
When an object is heated it usually responds to the heat.
Thermal Expansion:
When an object is heated it usually responds to the heat. One response is for the particles
of the object to move faster and spread out (increasing volume).
Thermal Expansion:
When an object is heated it usually responds to the heat. One response is for the particles
of the object to move faster and spread out (increasing volume).
This causes the object to expand and is called thermal expansion.
