Question

On increasing the temperature of a substance, the movement of its particles increases.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

The temperature of an object is the measure of the total kinetic energy of the constituent particles that make up the object. The kinetic energy of the particles is associated with their movement. Whenever the temperature has increased the movement of particles increases thereby increasing the intermolecular spaces between them. Hence on increasing temperature, the kinetic energy of the particles also increases.
