Matter and temperature quick check

1 answer

1. What is matter?
- Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. It can exist in different states such as solid, liquid, and gas.

2. What is temperature?
- Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance. It is usually measured in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.

3. How are matter and temperature related?
- The temperature of a substance is a reflection of the average kinetic energy of its particles. When matter is heated, its particles gain kinetic energy and move faster, causing an increase in temperature. On the other hand, when matter is cooled, its particles lose kinetic energy and slow down, leading to a decrease in temperature.
