The hotter an object is, the faster the motion of the molecules inside it.
Thus, the heat of an object is the total energy of all the molecular motion inside that object.
Temperature, on the other hand, is a measure of the average heat or thermal energy of the molecules in a substance.
The heat goes first into increasing the kinetic energies of the molecules. ... As the substance heats up, the average kinetic energy of the molecules increases. The collisions impart enough energy to allow rotation to occur. Rotation then contributes to the internal energy and raises the specific heat.

Heat is the form energy. Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body
