1 Conduction CONDUCTION is when heat moves through a ________. Metals are better conductors of heat than plastic or wood. This is why… These parts are made of plastic or wood: These parts are made of metal:

2 Conduction In this experiment we saw that liquid water is a poor conductor of heat. The ice cube did not melt even though the water above it was boiling. Air is also a poor conductor of heat. This is how many types of house insulation and clothing keep us warm.

3 Words to use: expands, radiators, dense, heated, current, float
Convection Convection is all about when a gas or liquid (“fluid”) moves and carries heat with it. When the fluid is heated it ____________. This means that it will become less __________ than the colder fluid around it. Because of this the warmer fluid will try to “_______” over the colder fluid, and this is why warm air rises. This is called a convection ___________. This is how heat reaches us from the ___________ in this room. Words to use: expands, radiators, dense, heated, current, float

4 Words – sun, absorbs, nothing, warmer, waves
Radiation When you wear a black t-shirt on a hot, sunny day you would feel ______ than if you wore white. This is because black ________ infrared radiation (i.e. heat) from the sun better than white does. I’m cool! I’m very hot! Conduction is when heat travels through a solid and convection happens in a liquid or gas, but radiation can happen through absolutely ________ because the heat is moving by ______. This is how heat reaches us from the ____. Words – sun, absorbs, nothing, warmer, waves

5 Heat and Temperature Heat is a type of energy that will flow from a warm area to a colder one. For example… This cup of coffee will ____ ____ because it is _____ ____ heat energy into the surroundings. This drink (taken out of the fridge) will _____ ___ because it is _____ ___ heat energy from the surroundings. Words – giving out, warm up, taking in, cool down

6 Heat energy How much heat energy an object has depends on its temperature AND how much of it there is… The sparkler is at a higher temperature than the bath, but the bath is MUCH heavier, so it has more heat energy.

7 Particle theory revision
Particle theory is all about explaining the properties of solids, liquids and gases by looking at what the particles do. View animation SOLIDS In a solid the particles ______ around a _____ position. There is a ______ force of attraction between each particle and they are very _____ together Words – strong, close, vibrate, fixed

8 Words – fixed, collide, quickly, close, very, solids
LIQUIDS GASES In a liquid the particles are _____ together but can move in any direction. They won’t keep a _____ shape like _____ do. In a gas the particles are very far apart and move _____ in all directions. They often ______ with each other and because they are far apart they can be easily _______. Words – fixed, collide, quickly, close, very, solids

9 Changes of State What are these processes called? Choose from freezing, evaporating, melting, condensing

10 Heating ice Temp/OC 150 100 50 -50 This flat line shows where energy is being used to push the particles further apart for evaporation This flat line shows where energy is being used to break bonds – this has to be done during melting Time/s
