The amount of heat absorbed depends upon:
- The number of particles
- The types of forces acting on the particles (e.g. gravity, electromagnetism, strong and weak nuclear forces).
- The mean distance between the particles.
- Wether or not the collection is in thermodynamic equilibrium with its surroundings.
- The degree to which it is isolated from its surroundings. This is strongly related to #4.
- The number of degrees of freedom of the collection (system) of particles. This is really the number of independent ways the particles can be moved. Again, strongly related to.
The so-called transfer of heat is the transfer of internal energy from one system to another (including the surroundings). This ocuurs through conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy (remember those forces) and vice versa. And, via potential energy to radiant energy (photons) and vice versa.
