The chapter delves into the concepts of calorimetry, heat, and temperature, emphasizing the laws governing heat transfer and specific heat capacity. It covers the instruments used to measure heat exchanges, such as calorimeters, and discusses phase changes along with the associated latent heats. Additionally, the effects of pressure and impurities on states of matter are explored, along with the practical representation of temperature changes through cooling curves.

Heat is energy transferred due to a temperature difference.
The principle of calorimetry states that heat lost by a hot body equals the heat gained by a cold body.
Specific heat capacity quantifies the heat needed to raise the temperature of a substance.
A form of energy transferred between bodies due to temperature differences.
A measure of the thermal condition of a body, indicating how hot or cold it is.
The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of a substance by 1°C or 1 K.
The heat supplied or extracted during a phase change without temperature change.
A device used for measuring the amount of heat exchanged in physical and chemical processes.
