Question

1. Which statement correctly describes the relationship between thermal energy and particle movement?(1 point)
Responses

As thermal energy increases, there is less particle movement.
As thermal energy increases, there is less particle movement.

As thermal energy increases, particle movement does not change.
As thermal energy increases, particle movement does not change.

As thermal energy increases, it is not possible to predict particle movement.
As thermal energy increases, it is not possible to predict particle movement.

As thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement.

Answer 1

The correct statement is:

**As thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement.**

This is because thermal energy is related to the kinetic energy of particles; as thermal energy increases, the particles move more rapidly.
