Energy transfer
The flow of energy from one region to another region is referred to as energy transfer. Since energy is quantitative; it must be transferred to a body or a material to work or to heat the system.
Molar Specific Heat
Heat capacity is the amount of heat energy absorbed or released by a chemical substance per the change in temperature of that substance. The change in heat is also called enthalpy. The SI unit of heat capacity is Joules per Kelvin, which is (J K-1)
Thermal Properties of Matter
Thermal energy is described as one of the form of heat energy which flows from one body of higher temperature to the other with the lower temperature when these two bodies are placed in contact to each other. Heat is described as the form of energy which…

Answer to Problem 2Q

Solution:

No, temperature doesn’t flow between hot and cold objects. Temperature changes until the two objects have the same temperature.

Explanation of Solution

Temperature is a measure of hotness or coldness of a body. It doesn’t flow. Heat energy transfers from a hotter object to a colder one. The heat energy flows till the two bodies are at the same temperature. The change in temperature might be equal in some cases.
