which statement correctly describes the relationship between thermal energy and particle movement?

as thermal energy increases there is less particle movement
as thermal energy increases particle movement does not change
as thermal energy increases it is not possible to predict particle movement
as thermal energy increases there is more particle movement

The statement that correctly describes the relationship between thermal energy and particle movement is: as thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement.

what happens to the density of a material if you have a larger piece of it?

A: the density will be smaller because the mass Remains the Same as the volume increases
B: the density will remain the same because the mass and volume will remain the same
C:the density will remain the same because the mass and volume will both increase in the same way
D:the density will be greater because the mass increases but the volume Remains the Same

The answer is C: the density will remain the same because the mass and volume will both increase in the same way.
