1 Heat is a measure of energy in terms of quantity. 2  A calorie is the amount of heat required to raise 1 gram of water 1Â°C (based on a standard temperature of 16.5 to 17.5Â°C).  Conduction is the transfer of heat between materials that contact each other. Heat passes from the warmer material to the cooler material.
