Study the scenario.
The particles in a system are moving around very slowly. A few minutes later, the particles are moving, on average, much faster.
How does this change in motion affect the temperature of the system?
Responses
it is not possible to tell since temperature is a result of the fastest moving particles in a system, not the average
it is not possible to tell since temperature is a result of the fastest moving particles in a system, not the average
the temperature decreases since the average kinetic energy of the particles increases
the temperature decreases since the average kinetic energy of the particles increases
the temperature increase since the average kinetic energy of the particles increases
the temperature increase since the average kinetic energy of the particles increases
the temperature remains the same since temperature is a measure of potential energy of a system, not the movement of its particles
the temperature increases since the average kinetic energy of the particles increases
Which statement correctly explains the differences in the molecular motion of solids and liquids using the kinetic theory?
Responses
Molecules move slower in liquids, and faster in solids. Moving molecules store kinetic energy, so molecules in a liquid have less energy than those molecules in a solid state.

Which choice correctly describes what happens during cooling?
Responses
If two systems are at different temperatures, energy will leave the system with greater thermal energy and go into the system with less thermal energy.
If two systems are at different temperatures, energy will leave the system with greater thermal energy and go into the system with less thermal energy.
Thermal energy moves from one system into the other until the amount of energy in the two systems is reversed.

Examine the graph of the heating curve of water and scenario.
A temp-energy graph with five sections. Section A, labeled solid, goes from up from -10 degrees Celsius to zero degrees. Section B is horizontal at 0 degrees, connecting A and C. Section C, labeled liquid, goes from 0 to 100 degrees. Section D is horizontal at 100 degrees, connecting C and E. Section E, labeled gas, goes from up from 100 degrees through 200 degrees.
