Explain the differences between heat and temperature.
✓
Answer
The differences between heat and temperature are given below
| Heat | Temperature |
| It is a form of energy which flows from one body to another when there is a difference in temperature between the objects. | It is the thermal condition of a body that indicates whether heat is present or not and in which direction, heat will flow from one body to the other. |
| It is equal to the sum of internal energies of the molecules of a body. | It is proportional to average kinetic energy of the molecules of the body. |
| As a heat exchange between two bodies, total amount of heat of two bodies remains unchanged. | As a conclusion of exchange of heat between two bodies, sum of their temperatures before and after exchange is not same. |
| SI unit of heat is joule (J). | SI unit of temperature is kelvin (K). |
