__pg. 426__ 1. Kinetic Molecular Theory is a theory that explains that particles in matter are in constant motion. 2. __Temperature__ is a measure of the average kinetic energy of all the particles in a sample of matter. 3. The three main temperature scales are __Celsius, Kelvin, and Fahrenheit__. __pg. 427__ 1. __Thermal Energy__ is the total energy of all the particles in a solid, liquid, or gas. 2. The more temperature an object has, the more thermal energy. 3. __Heat__ is the amount of thermal energy that transfers from an area or object of higher temperature to an area or object of lower temperature. __pg. 428__ 1. __Conduction__ is the transfer of heat from one substance to another or within a solid by direct contact of particles. 2. A __conductor__ is an object/material that transfers heat easily. 3. __Insulators__ are objects that do not transfer heat easily.
