Objects with greater density than the density of water tend to sink. Mercury has13.6 g/cm3 thus, mercury sinks in water. Objects with lesser density than water tends tofloat e.g. oil, with a density of about 0.9 g/cm3. Materials with density equal to the density ofwater tend to be submerged. Submarine is one example of a material with the same densityas that of water.Here are the densities of some materialsMaterials ρ ρ (g/cm3) (kg/m3)Liquids 13.6 13,600 Mercury 1.26 1,260 Glycerin 1.03 1,025 Seawater 1.00 1,000 Water at 4oC 899 Benzene 0.9 806 Ethyl Alcohol 0.81Solids 22.5 22,480 Osmium 21.5 21,450 Platinum 19.3 19,320 Gold 19.0 19,050 Uranium 11.3 11,344 Lead 10.5 10,500 Silver Copper 8.9 8,920 Brass 8.6 8,560 Iron 7.8 7,800 Tin 7.3 7,280 Aluminum 2.7 2,702 Ice 0.92 917Gases (atmospheric pressure at sea level)Dry air0oC 0.00129 1.29 1.2510oC 0.00125 1.21 1.1620oC 0.0012130oC 0.00116 11
A quantity known as weight density is also commonly used. It is the ratio of theweight of the object and its volume. In symbols; ρweight = w v where: ρweight = weight density w = weight = mg = (mass x 9.8 m/s2) v = volume Specific gravity of a substance is related to the concept of density. It is defined asthe ratio of the density of the substance to the density of water at 4oC. In symbols; s.g = ρ material ρ water where: sg = specific gravity ρmaterial = density of a material ρwater = density of water at 4oC Specific gravity is a pure number. This means that there are no units for specific gravity. In other sources, specific gravity is termed as relative density. The specific gravity of water is 1. If the specific gravity of the substance is greater than 1, the substance will sink. If the specific gravity of the substance is less than 1, the substance will float. If the specific gravity of the substance is equal to 1 then the object is submerged.Fig. 2.2. Hydrometer Hydrometer is an instrument that measures density of liquid. It is a sealed tube witha narrow part at one end and some very dense material such as lead at the other end. Ifmade correctly, such a tube floats \"vertically\" so that the narrow part sticks out of the liquidwhile the heavy end sinks. The narrow part is calibrated for density. The hydrometer floatshigher in liquids of higher density and lower in liquids of lower density. 12

Lesson 3 Pressure in a Fluid Take a look at the book lying on top of the table. The book exerts a force on the table equal to its weight. This force is exerted perpendicular to the surface area on which the book lies. The ratio of this perpendicular force and the surface area is called pressure. In symbols; W P= F AFig 3.1. Book on top of thetablewhere: P = pressure exerted by the book on the table F = force exerted by the book A = surface area Since force is expressed in newton (N) and surface area is expressed in squaremeters (m2), pressure is then expressed as N/m2. One N/m2 is equivalent to 1 pascal (Pa).This is in honor of Blaise Pascal who discovered the Pascal’s Principle. Pressure can alsobe expressed in other units such as torr, mm of Hg, atm or millibars. Atmospheric pressureis usually expressed in millibars. Now, take a close look at the cylindrical container filled with liquid. The weight of the liquid itself exerts a force on the bottom of the cylinder. This force results to a pressure on the bottom of the cylinder. Since pressure is defined as the ratio of the force and the surface area, thus;Fig 3.2. Cylindrical P= Fcontainer with liquid A Since the force applied on the bottom of the cylinder is equal to the weight of theliquid, then P= W A 14
but W = mg thus P = mg A but ρ= m v m = ρv thus P = ρVg Abut v=Axh P = ρAhg A P = ρghwhere: P = pressure ρ = density of fluid g = 9.8 m/s2 h = altitude/depth This means that pressure exerted by fluids only depends on the density of the fluid, acceleration due to gravity of the place and altitude (for gasses) or depth (for liquid). Pressure in fluids is independent of the amount of fluid. Thus, separate containers of different sizes, holding identical liquids of uniform density, have equal pressure at equal depths. Even cross-sectional area doesn’t account for the pressure exerted by the fluid. Thin containers experience the same pressure at the bottom as wide containers as long as they contain the same liquid of the same depth. Thus, when liquid is poured into a transparent tube, liquid on bothFig 3.3 Containers of different sides would always be of the same depth to attain equalcross-section pressures. That’s why carpenters tend to say, “Water seeks its own level”. When measuring depths carpentersoften use this concept of pressure. 15

Pascal’s Principle Did you know that Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician, discovered the Pascal’s principle during his time (1623-1662)? He Fig 3.5 Blaise Pascal said, “Changes in pressure at any point in an enclosed container at rest is transmitted undiminished to all points in the fluid and act in all directions. Due to his discovery, the SI unit of pressure was named after him. For example, if the pressure of city water is increased at the pumping station by 5 units of pressure, the pressure everywhere in the pipes of the connected system will be increased by 5 units of pressure provided that the water is at rest. Usually, a device known as hydraulic jack employs the Pascal’s principle. It works just like a U-tube shown in the figure. The left side of the tube has a smaller area than the right side of the tube. In the figure, the piston on the left has an area of one square centimeter and the piston on the right has an area fifty times as great, in this case, 50 square centimeters.Fig 3.6 Hydraulic jack If there is one newton (1 N) load on the left piston then an additional pressure of one newton (! N) per square centimeter (N/cm2) is transmitted throughout the liquid and up against the larger piston. This means that 1 N/cm2 is exerted against every square centimeter. Since there are 50 square centimeters, the total extra force exerted on the larger piston is 50 N. Thus, the larger piston will support a 50-Newton load. This is fifty times the load on the smaller piston! This means that we can multiply the force with such a devise.Figure 3.7 U-tubeBlood Pressure Every time you go to a clinic for medical check-up, one of the nurses measures yourblood pressure. A cuff is wrapped around your arm, and then the cuff is inflated until it istight. Then, the nurse listens through a stethoscope held to your arm while letting the cuffslowly deflate. The two very significant pressures in the heart’s action are the systolic pressure,when the beat is contracted, and the diastolic pressure, when the heart is relaxed betweenbeats. Normal heart action causes arterial blood pressure to oscillate between these twovalves. 18
The most direct way of measuring blood pressure is to insert a fluid-filled tube into theartery and connect it to the pressure gauge. This is sometimes done but it is neithercomfortable nor convenient. The commonly used indirect method involves a device calledsphygmomanometer. A non-elastic cuff that has an inflatable bag within it is placed aroundthe upper arm, at the same level as the heart so as to measure the same pressure. Whenthe cuff is inflated, the tissue in the arm is compressed; if sufficient pressure is applied, theflow of arterial blood in the arm stops. If the cuff is long enough and if it is applied smugly,the pressure in the tissues in the arm is the same as the pressure in the artery. In effect,Pascal’s principle holds for the system composed of the cuff, arm and artery. After the blood flow has been cut off, the pressure in the cuff is reduced by releasingsome of the air. At some point, the maximum arterial pressure slightly exceeds the pressurein the surrounding tissue and cuff, allowing the blood to resume flowing. The acceleration ofthe blood through the arteries gives rise to a characteristic sound, which can be identified bymeans of a stethoscope. When this sound occurs, the manometer indicates the maximum,or systolic pressure. As the pressure in the cuff falls further, a second change in the soundis heard which is characteristics of the drop below diastolic pressure. The two pressures arereported such as 100 over 75, which corresponds to the blood pressure of a healthy person.Lesson 4 Archimedes Principle Can you carry the person in the figure while standing? Can you carry him while in a swimming pool? Usually we tend to carry a load easier in water than in air. This apparent loss of weight if submerged is known as buoyancy. The liquid tends to exert an upward force for objects submerged or objects located underwater. This upward force exerted by the liquid on the submerged object is called buoyant force, which is a consequence of increasing pressure with depths.Fig 4.1 Fat Man 19
Take a look at the load submerged in water. At greater depth, there exists a large pressure of the liquid on the load. This results to a large upward force. P= F AFig 4.2 Submerged load At the top of the load, lesser pressure is exerted by the liquid on the load resulting to lesser downward force. P= F A Thus, there exists an unbalanced upward and downward force, which results to a netupward force by the liquid on the load. This net upward force is called buoyant Force. If theweight of the submerged object is greater than the buoyant force, the object sinks. If theobject’s weight is equal to the buoyant force, the object remains at any level. If the buoyantforce, on the other hand, is greater than the weight of the object then the object floats on theliquid.Read this: Archimedes, one of the greatest scientists (287-212 BC) was given the task of determiningwhether a crown made for King Heiron II was of pure gold or whether it was made of some cheaper metals.Archimedes then knew the concept of density and if he could compute for the density of the old crown, hecould determine whether the crown was made of pure gold or not But the crown was an irregularly shapedobject, thus, he had difficulty determining its volume. One day, his friends asked him to join them to have their bath at the public bath tubs. At first,he was hesitant since he still had not found how to determine the volume of the crown. But his friendsinsisted thus he went with them. When he immersed his naked body to the water in the tub, he realizedthat he could do the same to the crown. Thus, story has it that he immediately rushed naked through thestreets shouting “Eureka, Eureka” (I have found it, I have found it) What Archimedes had discovered was a simple and accurate way of finding the volume of an irregular object – the water displacement method. When an object is immersed in water, water is displaced by the immersed object. The volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the immersed object. Thus, Archimedes made use of the displacement method to determine the volume of the crown and calculate its density.Fig 4.3 Archimedes 20
Archimedes further studied on the concept of buoyancy. Later, he came up with therelationship between buoyancy and displaced liquid. This is now known as the Archimedes’Principle, which states that an immersed body is buoyed up by a force equal to theweight of the fluid it displaces. This principle holds true of all fluids, both liquids andgases. B.F. = Wair – W water Take a look at the figure. The resultant force along the y- axis; ΣFy = F1 – F2 – W Since the liquid is in equilibrium,Fig 4.4 Object submerged ΣFy = 0 But 0 = F1 – F2 – W F1 – F2 =W But Thus B.F. = F1 – F2 But B.F. = W Thus W = mg m = ρv B.F. = ρvgwhere: B.F. = buoyant force ρ = density of the fluid v = volume of object/volume of displaced liquid g = acceleration due to gravity For example, if we immerse a sealed 1-liter container halfway into the water, it willdisplace a half-liter of water. If we immerse it all the way (submerge it), it will be buoyed upby the weight of a full liter of water (9.8 N). Unless we compress the completelysubmerged container, the buoyant force will equal the weight of one liter of water at anydepth due to the fact that at any depth, the container will displace the same volume of water.The weight of the displaced liquid is the buoyant force exerted by the water. 21
Another way of determining the buoyant force applied by the water is to take thedifference between the weight of the object in air and its weight in water. If a 300-gramblock weighs about 3 N in air while its weight in water is about 1 N, then the buoyant force is3 N minus 1 N. This means that the buoyant force is about 2 N. This also means that theblock displaces an amount of water, which weighs about 2 N. What you will do Activity 4.1 Objectives: To verify Archimedes’ principle.

Fig. 4.6 Block of iron and a ship Hundreds of years ago, if you had said that you were going to build a ship made of iron, everyone would have laughed at you because everybody knew that since iron was denser than water, it would sink. Now we know that if we are going to re-shape the iron to have a large volume (like a bowl) then most probably that piece of iron will float. If the weight of the displaced water equals the weight of the bowl then the bowl floats.This is because the buoyant force is now equal to the weight of the bowl. This is known asthe principle of flotation: A floating object displaces a weight of fluid equal to its ownweight. Every ship must be designed to displace a weight of water equal to its own weight.Thus, a 10 000-ton ship must be built wide enough to displace 10 000 tons of water before itsinks too deep below the surface.

Lesson 1 Heat and Temperature You encounter heat everyday. When cooking food, you burn fuel such as liquefiedpetroleum gas (LPG). You also see many people burn butane in cigarette lighter. Whenfuels are burned, heat is generated. Heat is often associated with temperature. In thislesson, you will learn more about heat and temperature. Have you ever wondered why your body is hot even if you are at rest? Let’s first havea short recall of past lessons. Do the activity that follows to find out if you still remembersome concepts you will need to understand why your body is warm even if you are at rest. What you will do Self-Test 1.1Fill in the blank with word or words to complete the following statements:1. _________ energy is associated with moving objects.2.

Key to answers on page 32 In the previous modules, you have learned about the kinetic energy possessed by bigmoving objects such as a rolling ball or a running person, and the potential energypossessed by big bodies such as that of a raised hammer or a stretched spring. In thislesson the focus will be on energy of molecules and the atoms that make up thesemolecules. Let’s call these atoms and molecules simply as particles.Temperature Have you ever experienced having a fever? Do you feel your forehead or your neckto determine whether you have fever or not? When you feel you are warm, you often sayyou have high temperature. Temperature is commonly associated with coldness or hotnessof a body. When a body is hot, we say its temperature is high, and when it is cold, we say itstemperature is low. How do we quantify this difference in hotness or coldness of a body?You might have seen how doctors and nurses measure temperature. Have you seen a smallglass tube put in the underarm or under the tongue to determine temperature? Thisinstrument is called a thermometer. 5
Thermometers usually apply physical properties of matter which change withtemperature. An example of this property is the volume expansion of a liquid like mercury,which is most commonly used in thermometers. To establish a temperature scale, a processthat occurs without a change in temperature is used as a fixed point on a temperature scale.To understand how temperature scale is established and what fixed points are, do Activity1.1.What you will do Activity 1.11. Look at the data below obtained in an experiment where 200 ml of pure water is heated and boiled.2. Observe what happens to the temperature as water is being heated.Time Temperature Time Temperature(min) (oC) (min (oC 30 16 0 32 17 66 1 34 18 69 2 35 19 74 3 38 20 76 4 41 21 79 5 44 22 80 6 46 23 83 7 48 24 86 8 51 25 88 9 53 26 90 10 55 27 94 11 58 28 96 12 60 29 98 13 100 water 62 30 boils 14 64 31 100 15 1003. Answer the following questions: a. What happens to the temperature of water as time passes? b. What is the temperature of water when it begins to boil? c. What happens to the temperature of water while it is boiling? Key to answers on page 32 6
Have you noticed that the temperature increases as water is being heated? But,when water is already boiling, no change in temperature occurs. When a substancechanges phase from liquid to gas its temperature remains the same. Remember This! Temperature of a substance increases as it is heated. Temperature of a substance remains the same while it is undergoing a change of phase This constant temperature is used as a fixed point in a temperature scale. Forexample, the two fixed points used are the freezing point of ice and the boiling point ofwater. What you will do Activity 1.2 1.

2. Answer the following questions: a. What are the temperature scales used in measuring temperature? b. What is the freezing point of water in degrees Celsius? In degrees Fahrenheit? In Kelvin? c. At what temperature does water boil in degrees Celsius? in degrees Fahrenheit? in Kelvin? d. What is the temperature difference between the freezing point and the boiling point of water in each of the three temperature scales? e. Derive an equation to change the temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit, from Fahrenheit to Celsius, from Celsius to Kelvin, and from Kelvin to Celsius. Key to answers on page 32 Did you notice that the freezing point of water in the Celsius scale is 00 while in theFahrenheit scale, it is 32 0. Did you also notice that the difference between the freezingpoint and the boiling point of water in the Celsius scale is 1000? In the Fahrenheit scale, thedifference between the two fixed points is 180 0. To change the temperature from Celsiusscale to Fahrenheit scale, always remember that 00 is equivalent to 320 and that a range of180 0 on the Fahrenheit scale is equivalent to 1000 on the Celsius scale. One Celsius degreeis equivalent to 180/100, or 9/5, of one Fahrenheit degree. The equation would be TF = 180/100 TC + 32, or TF = 9/5 TC+ 32Example Problem 1 Change the normal body temperature which is 37 0 C to Fahrenheit.Solution 1. The equation to be used is TF = 9/5 TC+ 32 2. Substitute the given value into the equation, TF = 9/5 ( 37) +32 = 98.6 0 F 8
Example Problem 2 A newscaster reports that the temperature in Korea is -15 0 C. What is thistemperature in Fahrenheit?Solution 1. The equation to be used is TF = 9/5 TC+ 32 2. Substitute the given value into the equation, TF = 9/5 (-15) +32 = 5 °F Can you derive the equation that will convert a temperature in the Fahrenheit scale toCelsius scale? Rearranging equation 14.1, we have TC = 5/9 (TF – 32). 3. The temperature of the room is 108 °F. What is this temperature in 0 C?Solution 1. The equation to be used is TC = 5/9 (TF – 32). 2. Substitute the given value into the equation, TC = 5/9 (TF – 32). = 5/9 (108 – 32) = 42.2 0 C What you will do Self-Test 1.2Get a clean sheet of paper and solve the following problems. 1.

Key to answers on page 33 9
Temperature and Kinetic Energy Even if your body as a whole, when at rest, has zero kinetic energy, the moleculeswhich it is made of are moving. The particles move from one place to another. They rotateor vibrate, hence, they possess kinetic energy. Temperature is associated with thistranslational motion of molecules. It is proportional to the average kinetic energy of themolecule of a substance. This means that if the temperature is high, the average kineticenergy of the molecules is greater, or the average movement of the molecules is fast. Thetemperature, however, is not directly affected by the rotational or vibrational motion of themolecules.Heat Some objects are hot, others are cold. The flame of the candle is hot while ice iscold. What makes some object hot and other objects cold?Heat Transfer If you get out of your house during cold days, you feel cold. This is because energypasses out from your skin into the air. If you touch a piece of ice, energy passes out of yourhand into the ice. If, however, you touch the flame of a candle, energy passes out from thecandle into your hand. When something hot is placed next to something cold, energy transfers from the hotobject to the cold object until both eventually come to the same temperature. In the systemof air and your skin, the warmer body is your skin. Energy transfer is from your skin to thecooler air. In the ice and hand system, the direction of energy transfer is from the warmerhand to the cooler air. In the flame and hand system, the direction of energy transfer is fromthe hot flame to your hand. Generally, energy transfers naturally from a body of hightemperature to a body of lower temperature (Fig. 1.2). The energy transferred from onebody to another because of a temperature difference is called heat. Heat, therefore, isenergy in transit from a body of higher temperature to a body of lower temperature. Oncetransferred, it can no longer be called heat. It becomes the internal energy of the body.Transfer of energy from hot objects to cool object stops when the two attain the sametemperature. The objects are said to be in thermal equilibrium. Fig 1.2 Direction of Heat Flow 10
Remember This! Energy transfers naturally from a body of higher temperature to a body of lower temperature. The energy transferred from one body to another because of a temperature difference is called heat. What you will do Activity 1.3 I. Study figure 1.3 showing two objects of different temperature. The white circles represent particles in a hot object while the dark circles represent particles in a cold object. The arrows indicate the movement of the particles. II. Answer the following questions 1. Compare the movement of particles in hot and cold objects. 2. Compare the temperatures of the two objects. 3. When the two were placed in contact, what happened to their temperatures? 4. After sometime (Fig. 1.3 (c)) what happened to the temperature of the two objects? Key to answers on page 34 In molecular level how does transfer of energy happen from a hot body to a coldbody? If you could view what happens in the area of interaction between the two objects,you would see fast moving molecules in the hot object and slow-moving molecules in thecold object (Fig. 1.3 a). The faster molecules in a hot object collide with the slow-movingmolecules in the cold object (Fig. 1.3 b). The collisions would cause the faster molecules toslow down and the slow-moving ones to move faster than before. 11
(a) (b) (c)Fig. 1.3 (a) The particles in a hot object move faster than the particles in the colder object. (b)The two objects come in contact. When the two objects are in contact, fast-moving moleculescollide with slow-moving molecules causing the slow-moving molecules to speed up and thefast-moving one to slow down.(c) Heat flows from hotter to colder object causing the particles in the hot object to slowdown and the particles in the colder object to speed up. The molecules move at the samespeed, a state of thermal equilibrium. Think about this! What happens to the kinetic energy of the fast-moving molecule that collides with the slow-moving molecule? Do you realize that the kinetic energy of the fast-moving molecule decreases when itcollides with the slow-moving molecule, thus increasing the kinetic energy of the slow-moving molecule? So there is a transfer of energy from the fast-moving molecule to the slowmoving molecule. After sometime, the molecules in the two objects move with the sameaverage kinetic energy (Fig. 1.3c), thus, their temperatures are the same. No heat flowsbetween the two objects. The two objects are said to be in thermal equilibrium.12

In molecular level, explain the transfer of energy from a hot object to a cold object.7. What effect does transfer of energy have on an object? Key to answers on page 34Thermal energy and internal energy Atoms in molecules also move, so they also possess kinetic energy. The atomic andmolecular energy of a substance is called internal energy. Internal energy consists ofthermal energy, which is the random kinetic energy of the atoms and molecules, and thepotential energy of these tiny particles resulting from their bonds and interaction with eachother. Internal energy is, therefore, the total of all the energy in a body. In the previous section of this module, you learned that temperature is the measure ofthe average kinetic energy of molecules. Heat is a process whereby energy is transferredfrom one body to another of different temperatures. During a heat transfer, fast-moving 13
molecules in a hot object collide with slow-moving molecules in a cold object. Thermalequilibrium is reached when the average kinetic energies of the molecules in both objectsare the same. The kinetic energy of a slow-moving molecule increases upon collision with afast-moving molecule. Since the average kinetic energy of the molecules in the formerly coldobject increases, its temperature increases. On the other hand, the temperature of theformerly hot object decreases due to a decrease in the average kinetic energy of themolecules. Since there is an increase in the kinetic energy of the molecules in the formerlycold object, the sum of the energies of this object increases, or its internal energy increases.Since the kinetic energy of the molecules in the formerly hot object decreases, the internalenergy of the object decreases.Lesson 2 Consequences of HeatMeasurement of Heat Suppose you have 1 g of water at 28 0C and you want to heat it to a temperature of29 0C. How much heat is needed? The unit of heat more commonly used is calorie. Acalorie is defined as the heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 10 Cdegree. A bigger unit is the kilocalorie. A kilocalorie is equivalent to 1000 calories. Remember this! 1 kcal = 1000 cal Are you aware that the fuel value of food is also measured? The heat unit used tolabel foods is actually the kilocalorie. Nutritionists and dieticians call this the big calorie orCalorie (because this is written with a capital letter C). One Calorie is, therefore, onekilocalorie or 1000 calories. In the SI, the unit of energy is the joule. One calorie is equivalent to 4.18 joules. Onekilocalorie is equivalent to 4180 joules. Remember this! 1 cal = 4.18 J 1 kcal = 4180 J 14
What you will do Self-Test 2.1Answer the following questions. 1. Nowadays, people are fond of doing aerobic exercises. Aerobic exercises are believed to burn Calories from the food intake. A 150 – lb person playing volleyball, for example, uses 34 Calories per 10 minutes from the food intake. Express this energy in calories, in kilocalories, and in joules. 2. Most food energy goes into running your body and keeping it warm. The basal metabolic rate, or the average energy used by the body just lying quietly in bed is about 1400 Calories per day for women and 1600 Calories per day for men. What are these in kilocalories/day? in calories/day? Key to answers on page 34Specific Heat Capacity The sand in the beach heats faster than the water, but it also cools faster. Atnoontime, especially during summer, the sand becomes so hot, it is difficult to step on itbarefooted, but you can immerse your body in seawater without being burned. In lateafternoon, however, the land cools faster than the seawater. Why? To understand why thishappens, do the activity that follows. What you will do Activity 2.1A. 1. Ask your teacher to lend you three pieces of different metals of the same mass, probably aluminum, iron and copper. 2. Place the metals in boiling water for about 10 minutes. 3. With metal tongs remove the metals from boiling water and place them on a tray of paraffin. (Be careful in handling hot metals.) 4. Allow the metals to stay on the paraffin until they cool.B. Answer the following questions and write your answer on a clean sheet of paper: 1. Which metal melted the most paraffin? 2. Which metal has the most energy? Explain your answer. 3. Compare the temperature of the three metals before they were transferred to the paraffin. Key to answers on page 35 15
Did you notice that among the three metals, aluminum melted the most paraffin andcopper melted the least amount of paraffin? Since heat is required to melt paraffin, what isthe source of this heat? The source of this heat is the metal. The metals got hot whenimmersed in boiling water, and attained the same temperature as the boiling water. Whenthe hot metals were transferred to the paraffin, energy flowed from the hot metal to thecooler paraffin. The energy they got from the water was transferred to the paraffin becauseof temperature difference. Since aluminum absorbed the most energy, it also gave up themost energy. Copper absorbed the least energy, so it gave up the least energy. From the above discussion, it is clear that different metals of the same amountabsorb different amounts of energy . What you will do Activity 2.2A. 1. Place a cup of tap water in the kettle and heat it until it boils. 2. Fill another kettle with tap water up to the brim and heat it also until it boils. 3. Get a timer or a watch and record the time it takes for the two samples to boil.B. Answer the following questions: 1. Which takes a longer time to boil, a cup of water or a kettleful of water? 2. In which set up is the energy transfer greater? 3. Which has greater mass, a cup of water or a kettleful of water? 4. At constant temperature, how is the amount of energy transferred to a substance related to the mass? Key to answers on page 35 If you urgently need to drink hot coffee, and there is no available hot water, what doyou usually do? Do you boil a cup of water or a kettle of water? Of course, you boil just acup of water because it takes a shorter time. If the time it takes to boil a cup of water isshort, the energy transferred from the flame to the water is less. This indicates that mass isa factor in determining the amount of energy transferred from one body to another. Resultsof experiments show that the energy required to change the temperature of a substance byone degree is directly proportional to the mass of the substance, or Qαm 16
The equation indicates that for the same change in temperature, if mass is doubled,the energy required to have that change in temperature is also doubled. If mass is tripled,the energy required to change the temperature is also tripled, and so on. What you will do Self-Test 2.2 1. Which takes a longer time to boil, a cup of tap water or a kettleful of tap water? 2. If it takes a longer time to heat a given substance, what does that indicate about the amount of energy transferred to the substance? 3. Compare the change in temperature of the boiled cup of water with that of the kettleful of water. 4. At constant change in temperature, what possible relationship exists between amount of energy transferred to a substance and its change in mass? Key to answers on page 35 Which takes more time: boiling 1 cup of water or warming the same amount of waterif the two samples have the same initial temperature? Based on experience, boiling watertakes more time than just warming the same amount of water if the samples have the sameinitial temperature. Since the samples are at the same initial temperature, the change intemperature of the boiled water is greater than the change in temperature of the warmwater. This clearly shows that temperature is another factor to take into consideration indetermining the amount of energy needed to have a change in temperature. Results ofexperiments show that the energy required in changing the temperature, t, of a given massof a substance is directly proportional to the change in temperature. The greater the changein temperature of a given mass of substance is, the greater is the amount of energy needed,or Combining the two equations, we have If we change the proportionality sign to an equal sign, we have Q = k m ∆t,where k is a constant of proportionality which depends on the kind of substance. Thisconstant of proportionality is given a symbol c. If we rewrite the equation, we have, Q = m c ∆t. 17
Equation 1.4 may be used to determine the energy added to a substance to increaseits temperature. The same equation may also be used to determine the energy that is lostfrom a substance. Solving for c in equation 1.4, we have c= Q . m∆t The equation shows that the energy added or removed per unit mass and unitchange in temperature of substance is constant. The value c is constant only for a specificsubstance, so it is called specific heat.Example Problem 2.1What quantity of heat must be added to 50 grams of water at 10°C to increase itstemperature to 50°C?Solution:1. The given quantities are: specific heat of water, c= 1 cal/gC° Mass of substance, m= 50 g Initial temperature of water, ti= 10°C Final temperature of water, tf= 50°C Required: Energy needed, Q2. The equation that relates the given quantities with the unknown quantity is Q= mc∆t3. Substitute the given quantity into the working equation. The working equation is the basic equation for Q,Q= mc∆t = 50g(1cal/gCo) (50-10)Co = 50 cal (40)Q= 2 000 calExample Problem 2.2 How much heat must be added to boil a cup of water at 20 oC for coffee?One cup of water has a mass of about 220 g. 18
Solution: 1. The given quantities are; mass of water, m= 220g initial temperature of water, ti= 20 oC final temperature of water, tf = 100 oC Required: Heat needed, Q 2. The working equation to be used is the basic equation, Q= mc∆t 3. Substitute the given quantities into the working equation, Q = 220g (1 cal/gCo) (100 – 20)Co = 220 cal (80) = 17, 600 calChange of Phase Another consequence of heat transfer is change of phase. Surely, you have seenwhat happens to ice when it is taken out of the freezer. To understand what takes placewhen ice water melts, do activity 2.3MeltingWhat you will do Activity 2.31. Borrow a laboratory thermometer from your teacher.2. After taking out the ice cubes from the freezer immediately put them in a container. Gently push the thermometer into the ice cubes. The mercury should be covered with ice.3. Take the initial temperature of the ice, and record it in your data table (see table 2.1)Table 2.1 Time (min) Temperature ( oC) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 19
7 8 9 10 4. Record the temperature every minute thereafter, until you observe that most of the ice has melted. 5. Plot a graph of temperature against time. Describe the graph. Did you observe that the initial temperature of ice was below 0 oC. The temperatureof ice from a larger time before taking out of the freezer is usually below 0 oC. When leftoutside the freezer, the temperature increased until it reached 0o C. At this temperature, theice started to melt. While it was melting, did you observe that its temperature remained thesame? Does the graph of the temperature against time that you plotted the same as the onenext page (Figure 2.1)? The first part of the graph is a straight slanting line while the secondpart is a straight horizontal line.Fig. 2.1 Graph of temperature versus time for melting ice What happens to the particles when a solid melts? The atoms in a solid are usuallybonded to each other in a well-defined structure. They can vibrate about an equilibriumposition but they cannot rotate or move to new positions. If heat is added to a solid such asice, the temperature increases to 0oC. While the temperature is increasing, the particlesvibrate with greater amplitude. At 0oC, further heating will cause the particles to break awayfrom those near them and move about more freely. Melting occurs, or the solid changes to 20
liquid. The temperature at which this change from solid to liquid happens is called themelting temperature.What you will do Activity 2.41. Study Table 2.2 which shows the melting and boiling temperatures of some substances.

Compare the melting temperatures of the different substances. Did you observe that the melting temperatures of the substances differ? Meltingtemperature is one of the identifying properties of a substance. The amount of energy required to change the phase from solid to liquid also variesfor different substances. The measure of the energy required to melt a solid is called thelatent heat of fusions, hf. The heat of fusion of a solid is defined as the energy needed tomelt a unit mass of solid at the melting temperature. If you look at Table 2.2, you will findthat the heat of fusion of ice is 334 x 103 J/kg or 80 cal/g. This means that 1 kg of ice needs334 x 10 3 joules or 1 g of ice needs 80 cal to melt it at its melting temperature. How much heat is needed to melt a mass m of solid? In general, the heat, Q, neededto melt a mass of solid is Q = mhf The value, Q, is always a positive number because energy must be added to thesubstance to melt it. 21
Freezing of Liquids In the previous sections of this module, you learned about melting and the energyneeded to melt a given mass of substance. What do you think happens when liquid freezesor changes to solid? Freezing is the opposite of melting. When a liquid freezes, energy isgiven off. Think about this! What happens to the random motion of the particles of matter when water freezes? When a liquid freezes, the random motion of the particles slows down. Particles beginto fuse or bond. The liquid changes to a solid. This change from the liquid to the solid stateis called freezing. This occurs at the melting temperature. The same amount of energy is involved is freezing as that in melting. The energy Q released when a mass m, of liquid changes from liquid to solid or whena liquid freezes is Q = - mhf The negative sign indicates that energy is given off when the liquid freezes. Always remember that during a change of phase, the temperature of the substanceremains the same. Thus, when ice melts, temperature remains the same until all the ice wastotally melted. Similarly, the temperature remains the same until all the liquid has totallyfrozen. 22
What you will do Activity 2.5Try solving the following problems using the equations you have learned. 1. How much heat must be added to 200 g of ice at Oo C to totally melt it at the same temperature? 2. 100 g of water in an ice tray at 30o C was placed in the freezer of a refrigerator. After sometime, it froze. How much heat was removed from the water when all of it was frozen at 0o C? Key to answers on page 36Thermal Expansion Have you observed what happens to an inflated balloon when left under the sun? Whathappens to the dried skin of pork or beef made into “chicharon”? When left under the sun, an inflated balloon expands. It gets bigger. The dried pork orbeef skin also expands when placed in hot oil. Recall that whenever the thermometer isplaced in a glass of hot water, the level of mercury inside the thermometer tube rises.Solids, liquids and gases expand when they are heated What happens to the molecules when matter expands? Do activity 2.6 to find out.What you will do Activity 2.6Study figure 2.2, then answer the questions that follow. The figure shows a solid heated toincrease the temperature from 20o C to 50o CT= 20 o C T= 50 o C ab1. Describe the temperature of the solid in a and b. 23
2. If the small circles represent the molecules, estimate the number of molecules in the substance in a and b. 3. Compare the lengths of the two solids. 4. Compare the space between the molecules in solid a and solid b Key to answers on page 36 At higher temperature, the atoms and molecules in a solid or liquid vibrate through agreater distance. They push each other apart slightly in all directions. This is called thermalexpansion. Linear expansion is the increase in length while volume expansion is theincrease in volume per unit length or volume per degree rise in temperature. Most solid objects change length in direct proportion to a change in temperature.This means that for the same initial length of a solid, the greater the change in temperature,the greater is its increase in length. Most solid objects also change length in direct proportion to their original lengths. So,for the same change in temperature, a short iron bar expands less than a longer one. But ifwe get the ratios of the change in length to the initial length of the two bars, they are thesame. The equation ∆L α L ∆tshows the relationship of increase in length with original length and change in temperatureof the solid. If we change the proportionality sign to an equal sign, we introduce a constantof proportionality k. Thus we have ∆L = kL ∆twhere ∆L is the increase in length, k is the proportionality constant, Lo is the original lengthand ∆t is the change in temperature of the solid. The constant k may be changed to α and iscalled the coefficient of linear expansion. How is this value obtained?From the equation, ∆L = αLo ∆t, the α maybe solved; α= ∆L_ L ∆t This means that the ratio of the change in length to original length and unit change oftemperature is constant. However, this is constant for a given substance only. For differentsubstances, the value varies. 24

A solid does not merely becomelonger, it also becomes wider and thicker. So, both the area and the volume of the solidincrease. The behavior of liquids is quite similar to that of solids. However, since liquids do nothave definite shapes, the change in volume caused by expansion is determined Think about this! What do you think will happen to the level of liquid when its container is heated? Since liquids expand more than solids, when a container holding a liquid is heated, thelevel of the liquid rises. This is because the increase in volume of the liquid is greater thanthe increase in the volume of the container. This principle is applied in liquid thermometers.When heated, the level of mercury in the mercury thermometer rises. What you will do Activity 2.7Use the data in table 2.3 to answer the questions below: 1. Compare the thermal expansion of solids to that of liquids. 2. Compare the volume expansion of gases to that of solids and liquids. The volume expansion of gases is greater than those of solids and liquids. Unlikesolids and liquids, expansion of gases is uniform. 25
Example Problem 1 An iron rod is 20 cm in length at 30 oC. a) What is the increase in length of the rod whenthe temperature is increased to 60 oC? b) What is the length of the rod at60 oC?Solution(a)1. The given quantities are; L = 20 cm T1 = 30 oC T2 = 60 oC α iron = 12 X 10-62. The working equation to be used is the basic equation ∆L = αL ∆t3. Substitute the given quantities into the equation ∆L = 12 X 10-6/Co X 20 cm X (60-30) Co = 7200 X 10-6 cm or ∆L = 0.0072 cm(b)1. The given quantities are L1 = 20 cm ∆L = 0.0072 cm2. The basic equation to be used is ∆L = L2 - L13. Derive the equation for L2 from the equation ∆L = L2 - L1 L2 = ∆L + L14. Substitute the given quantities into the equation L2 = .0072 cm + 20 cm = 20.0072 cmExample Problem 2a) An aluminum rod is 1 m at 30 oC. What is the length of this rod at 60 oC? b) If the rod iscut in half, by how much does the length of each half increase for the same temperaturechange? 26
Solution(a)1. The given quantities are L= 1m Ti = 30 oC Tf = 60 oC ∆T = (60-30) Co = 30 Co 2. The equation to be used is L2 = ∆L + L, where ∆L = αL∆t 3. Substitute the given quantities in the 2nd equation ∆L = αL∆t = 25 X 10-6 / Co x 1m x 30 Co = 0.000750 m L2 = ∆L + L = 0.000750 m +1 m L2 = 1.00075 m Solution (b) 1. The given quantities are L = 0.5 m ∆T = 30 Co Required : ∆L 2. The equation to be used is ∆L = αL∆t 3. Substitute the given quantities into the equation ∆L = αL∆t = 25 X 10-6/Co X 0.5 m x 30 Co = 375.0 X 10-6 m, or = .000375 m 27
What you will do Self-Test 2.7Solve the following problems:1. A piece of copper pipe is 6.0 meters long at 25 o C. a) If it is heated to 25 o C, what is the increase in its length? (α al = 1.7 x 10 -5 / Co).2. What is the length of the rod in no. 1 if it is heated at 75 o C? Key to answers on page 37 Let’s summarize1. Temperature is the measure of the hotness or coldness of a body. In molecular level, temperature is defined as the measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules.2. Heat is energy in transit from a body of higher temperature to a body of lower temperature.3. The energy resulting from heat flow is called thermal energy.4. Internal energy is the total of all energies in a substance. It includes the translational kinetic energy of molecules, the rotational kinetic energy of molecules and kinetic energy due to movement of atoms in a molecule, and the potential energy due to the forces between molecules.5. The commonly used temperature scales are the Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin scales. In the Celsius scale, 0 degree is assigned as the temperature at which water freezes, while 100 degrees is assigned as the boiling temperature of water. The difference between the freezing temperature and the boiling temperature is 100 degrees. In the Fahrenheit scale, 32 degrees is assigned as the freezing point of water while 212 degrees is assigned as the boiling temperature of water. There is a gap of 180 degrees between the freezing and the boiling temperatures of water. In the Kelvin scale, the freezing point of water is 273 kelvins, while the boiling point is 373 kelvins. 28
6. Heat transfers naturally from a body of high temperature to a body of low temperature until the two bodies attain thermal equilibrium. In molecular level, during heat transfer, the kinetic energy of the fast-moving molecule decreases when it collides with a slow-moving molecule, so there is transfer of energy from the fast-moving molecule to slow-moving molecule. Thermal equilibrium is attained when the molecules have the same average velocity.7. The heat given off or added to a substance is obtained using the equation Q = mc∆t where m is the mass of the body, c is the specific heat, and ∆t is the change in temperature of the substance.8. The heat given off during a change of phase from liquid to solid or absorbed during a change of phase from solid to liquid is given by the equation Q = mhf. It is positive if heat is absorbed and negative if heat is given off.9. Solids expand when they are heated. The expansion is obtained using the equation ∆L α L ∆tPosttestDirections: Select the letter of the option that correctly answers the given questions.Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.1.
