To understand the relationship between temperature and kinetic energy in a phase of matter, it's important to note that as temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the particles also increases.
Here’s a general guideline for what the correct graph should show:
- The x-axis should represent temperature, typically in units like Celsius or Kelvin.
- The y-axis should represent kinetic energy, which may be measured in joules or related units.
- The graph should display a positive linear relationship, meaning that as you move to the right on the temperature axis (increasing temperature), the value of kinetic energy on the y-axis also increases.
If you have specific graph options available to you, look for a graph that demonstrates this positive correlation. If you can describe the graphs or options you see, I could help you identify the correct one.
