Heat is the energy transferred from one body to another due to a difference in temperature. Temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.

Heat is a form of energy while temperature is a measure of that energy
Heat is transferred from hotter to cooler objects while temperature can be measured using a thermometer
Heat can cause a change in temperature while temperature does not cause a change in heat
Example: A cup of hot coffee has more heat energy than a cup of cold coffee, but both have the same temperature
