energies of all the molecules in a body.
Specific Heat Capacity The energy required per unit mass of a substance to
raise its temperature by 1K (or 1 unit.)
Latent Heat of Fusion The quantity of energy per unit mass required to
change a substance from a solid into a liquid, at constant temperature.
Latent Heat of Vaporisation The quantity of energy per unit mass required
to change a substance from a liquid into a vapour, at a constant temperature.
Boyles Law The volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to
the pressure exerted on it, provided the temperature is kept constant.
Charles Law The volume occupied by a gas at constant temperature is
directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
