Question
Explain the relation between temperature and kinetic energy of particles.
Open in App
Solution
The temperature of a substance is directly related to its kinetic energy. Because kinetic energy is the energy a substance has because of its molecules being in motion, as a substance absorbs heat its molecules move faster, thereby increasing the substance’s kinetic energy.
