When the faster-moving molecules of Substance A make contact with the slower-moving molecules of Substance B, how do the temperatures of the substances change?(1 point) Responses The temperatures of both Substance A and Substance B increase. The temperatures of both Substance A and Substance B increase. The temperatures of Substances A and B are not affected. The temperatures of Substances A and B are not affected. The temperature of Substance A decreases and the temperature of Substance B remains the same. The temperature of Substance A decreases and the temperature of Substance B remains the same. The temperature of Substance A decreases and the temperature of Substance B increases.

1 answer

When the faster-moving molecules of Substance A make contact with the slower-moving molecules of Substance B, the temperature of Substance A decreases (because it loses some energy to Substance B), and the temperature of Substance B increases (as it gains energy from Substance A). Thus, the correct response is: The temperature of Substance A decreases and the temperature of Substance B increases.
