Which object will have particles with the highest average kinetic energy?
A drop of water at 90°C.
Water 40°C in a swimming pool.
An iceberg at 0°C.
Water at 37°C in a glass.
1 answer
A drop of water at 90°C will have particles with the highest average kinetic energy. This is because temperature is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, and the higher the temperature, the higher the average kinetic energy of the particles.
