Remember, temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object as a result of their random motions.(1 point)

Question

Particles of water will have
_________average kinetic energy when liquid water boils to becomes steam at 100 degrees celsius.
the same
different

Answer 1

Particles of water will have the same average kinetic energy when liquid water boils to become steam at 100 degrees Celsius.

At this temperature, both the liquid and gas phases of water exist at the same temperature, meaning their average kinetic energy is equal. However, it’s important to note that the individual particles may have different energies, but the average remains constant at a given temperature.
