View full size image. Temperature is a numerical representation of hot or cold compared against baselines, typically the point at which water freezes and boils. In most in instances, temperature measures how much heat there is in a particular entity âin a liquid, such as water, or a solid, such as soil. In meteorology, temperature measures the heat content of the atmosphere.
In chemistry class, that would be a trick question (sorry!). In thermodynamics, heat has a very specific meaning that is different from how we might use the word in everyday speech. Scientists define heat as thermal energy transferred between two systems at different temperatures that come in contact. Heat is written with the symbol q or Q, and it has units of Joules (J \text J J J).
