Thermal energy exchange between objects of different temperatures

Insulators __________ thermal energy transfer.

Describe what happens to solid ice when the amount of thermal energy increases.

Thermal energy that is transferred through empty space

Different containers were filled with hot water and the temperature of the water was measured and recorded over time. Based on the graph, which material was best at transferring thermal energy.

Materials such as metal and wire are good __________ because heat can easily transfer through them.

The average kinetic energy of all the particles in a material

The relationship between the temperature of a system and the total energy of the system depends on what factors?

When ice cubes melt in a glass of water, a current forms in which heat energy moves from particles with a higher temperature to particles with a __________ temperature.

Which of the following does not affect the relationship between temperature and total energy in a system - color of matter, type of matter, size of matter, amount of matter

An investigation to determine which material can maximize heat energy transfer would most likely include which of the following?

__________ energy always moves from objects with higher temperatures to objects with lower temperatures.
