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.

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.

It notes that Celsius and Kelvin are related by 273 and emphasizes the simplicity of conversions between these scales. Additionally, it mentions the historical development and relevance of these temperature scales in the field of chemistry.

Energy may change in form or be transferred from one system to another, but the total remains the same. When all forms of energy are considered, conservation of energy is written in equation form as KEi+PEi+Wnc+OEi=KEf+PEf+OEf, where OE is all other forms of energy besides mechanical energy.
