Explain why a block of ice could have more thermal energy than a pot of boiling water.

Laylalyssa:

Well, what do you think?

jordynwillman:

I don't know...

Laylalyssa:

Do you think it has anything to do with destiny

Laylalyssa:

density*

6ix0weGhost:

@jordynwillman do you think maybe it has somethign to do with size that thermal energy could be greater?

jordynwillman:

No, it doesn't deal with density?

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @jordynwillman No, it doesn't deal with density? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) What or how is thermal energy measured?

jordynwillman:

heat?

6ix0weGhost:

OK

6ix0weGhost:

Now does size affect thermal energy?

6ix0weGhost:

Heat is the total energy of molecular motion in a substance while temperature is a measure of the average energy of molecular motion in a substance. Heat energy depends on the speed of the particles, the number of particles (the size or mass), and the type of particles in an object.

jordynwillman:

Its 6th-grade science

6ix0weGhost:

So since heat energy depends on soze/mass what does that mean
