7. • As one molecule is heated it begins to move
Vibrate
and shake rapidly.
• Through this process, all the molecules of an
object pass heat from one to another, until they
are all hot.

masses of a liquid or gas move which is
carrying thermal energy and also
continuously until the system reaches
thermal balance
