kinetic energy (motion) of individual
molecules in matter.

13. • The kinetic theory of matter:
• Atoms and molecules (particles) are in
constant motion.
– The higher the temperature - the higher the
speed.
– Increased heat energy make atoms and
molecules move faster.

14. • Which of the pictures below represents hot
and cold on a molecular level?
Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
A B

15. • Answer: Molecules move faster when
hot, and slower when cold.
Hot Cold

“The Fahrenheit
Scale makes me
angry!”
Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

37. • To convert 95 degrees Fahrenheit
temperatures into Celsius:
– Begin by subtracting 32 from the Fahrenheit
number.
– Divide the answer by 9.
– Then multiply that answer by 5.
Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

38. 95 - 32 = 63.
Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

39. 95 - 32 = 63.
Then, 63 divided by 9 = 7
Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

40. 95 - 32 = 63.
Then, 63 divided by 9 = 7
Finally, 7 times 5 is 35 degrees Celsius.
