Suppose that the average speed (vrms) of carbon dioxide molecules (molar mass 44.0 g/mol) in a flame is found to be 2.35 105 m/s. What temperature does this represent

conduction is the transfer of thermal energy (heat in transfer) due to collisions between the molecules in the object. collisions between adjacent atoms and molecules transfer kinetic energy from the warmer to the cooler object. the objects must be in physical contact.
