Temperature Vocabulary Definitions
Temperature- the average kinetic energy of the particles that make up a material
Average Kinetic Energy- the average kinetic energy in in a material
- Molecule- a group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound
State of Matter- is one of the four distinct forms that matter take on
Liquid- is a substance with a definite volume but not a definite shape.

Boiling Point- the temperature at which a liquid boils and turns into vapor
Freezing Point-When temperatures of a liquid are lowered, causing a solid to form.
Law of Conservation of Energy- Energy cannot be created nor destroyed only transformed
