- Abstract:
When heat is added to a substance, it will respond by changes in temperature and volume. Substances will also conduct heat through themselves. An understanding of the thermal properties of matter has affected the development of areas of physics, including thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, quantum theory, and solid-state physics, and has both scientific and commercial applications.
