Essential Chemistry for IGCSE - Particles And Purification (Section 3 - No. 33)
How does increasing the temperature of a substance affect the kinetic energy of its particles?
It decreases the kinetic energy.
It has no effect on the kinetic energy.
It increases the kinetic energy.
It can either increase or decrease kinetic energy.
Explanation
Temperature is directly related to the average kinetic energy of the particles; thus, increasing the temperature increases the kinetic energy.
