Which of the following statements accurately describes the relationship between molecular motion and temperature?
- Faster molecular motion corresponds to higher temperatures. (correct)
- Molecular motion and temperature are independent properties.
- Molecular motion and temperature are inversely proportional.
- Slower molecular motion corresponds to higher temperatures.
When a substance is heated, what happens to the volume of the substance?
When a substance is heated, what happens to the volume of the substance?
- The volume may increase or decrease depending on the substance.
- The volume decreases as the atoms/molecules move closer together.
- The volume increases as the atoms/molecules move farther apart. (correct)
- The volume remains constant as the atoms/molecules do not change size.
If the atoms/molecules of a substance are observed to be moving slower, what can be inferred about the temperature of the substance?
