The kinetic energy of particles in a substance changes with...

1) a change in temperature
2) a change in state

huh

(solid, liquid, gas)

3) a change in pressure
4) a change in volume

Did you know?

Did you know that the kinetic energy of particles in a substance can change in two different ways? First, a change in temperature can alter the kinetic energy. As the temperature increases, the particles gain more energy, causing them to move faster and have a higher kinetic energy. Conversely, when the temperature decreases, the particles lose energy, move slower, and consequently have a lower kinetic energy. Second, a change in state, for example from solid to liquid or liquid to gas, also affects the kinetic energy. During a change in state, the arrangement and motion of particles transform, leading to a change in kinetic energy. Understanding these factors is vital in comprehending the behavior of particles and the properties of substances.
