A temperature on the Kelvin scale is the Celsius temperature plus 273.15. The minimum possible temperature is absolute zero and is assigned 0 K on the Kelvin scale. Density relates a substance’s mass and volume. Density can be used to calculate volume from a given mass or mass from a given volume.

Heat is energy that is transferred between objects at different temperatures; it flows from a high to a low temperature. Chemical and physical processes can absorb heat (endothermic) or release heat (exothermic). The SI unit of energy, heat, and work is the joule (J). Specific heat and heat capacity are measures of the energy needed to change the temperature of a substance or object.

Like pressure, temperature scales experienced an important process of development over time. Three of the most important temperature scales in US culture are the Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin scales.

(If we leave them in contact long enough, they will reach thermal equilibrium, but that is different from being in thermal equilibrium when they first touch.) If we have a system A, and we find that it is in thermal equilibrium with another system B, and also with another system C, then we know without doing the experiment that B and C are also in thermal equilibrium with each other.

Three things can change the energy of an object: the transfer of heat, work performed on or by an object, or some combination of heat and work. Thermochemistry is a branch of chemistry that qualitatively and quantitatively describes the energy changes that occur during chemical reactions. Energy is the capacity to do work.
