This concise overview explores the fundamental principles of heat transfer and conduction. It explains how adding energy increases the motion of atoms and molecules, raising temperature, while removing energy causes a decrease in motion and temperature. The process of conduction, where faster-moving molecules transfer energy to slower-moving ones, is highlighted, along with the concept of heat transfer from substances of higher temperature to lower temperature. Practical examples, including the behavior of room-temperature and hot washers in water, illustrate these concepts effectively.

Key Concepts • Adding energy (heating) atoms and molecules increases their motion, resulting in an increase in temperature. • Removing energy (cooling) atoms and molecules decreases their motion, resulting in a decrease in temperature. • Energy can be added or removed from a substance through a process called conduction. • In conduction, faster-moving molecules contact slower-moving molecules and transfer energy to them. • During conduction the slower-moving molecules speed up and the faster-moving molecules slow down. • Heat is the transfer of energy from a substance at a higher temperature to a substance at a lower temperature. • Some materials are better conductors of heat than others.
Room temperature washers in hot water • When room-temperature washers are placed in hot water, the temperature of the washers increases and the temperature of the water decreases. • Energy from the water is transferred to the washers. • http://www.middleschoolchemistry.com/multimedia/chapter2/lesson1#heating_washers
Hot washers in room temperature water • When hot washers are placed in room-temperature water, the temperature of the washers decreases and the temperature of the water increases. • Energy from the washers is transferred to the water. • http://www.middleschoolchemistry.com/multimedia/chapter2/lesson1#heating_washers
