True
False. Heat is measured in units of energy such as calories or joules, not in degrees Celsius. Temperature, on the other hand, is measured in degrees Celsius.
True. The difference between the freezing point (32°F) and boiling point (212°F) of water in the Fahrenheit scale is 180°F.
False. When water boils, the energy input causes the water molecules to gain enough kinetic energy to break free from the liquid phase and escape into the air as gas. This process does not involve the water molecules moving closer together.
False. Natural elements such as water, leaves, and rocks are capable of reflecting light to varying degrees, depending on their composition and surface properties.
True. When the temperature of water drops to 0 degrees Celsius, its molecules slow down and form regular patterns, creating a crystalline structure.
