Thermal Physics

Thermal physics studies heat, energy, and their relationships with matter. In chemical thermodynamics, it focuses on how energy transfer affects chemical reactions and physical changes. Key concepts include temperature, which measures heat, and entropy, which indicates disorder in a system. By understanding these principles, we can predict how substances will behave in various conditions, such as during reactions or phase changes. This knowledge is essential in fields like chemistry, engineering, and environmental science, impacting everything from energy efficiency to the development of new materials.
