A pot of soup is placed on a lit stove. What happens to the molecules inside the soup as a soup heat is the answer of the movement of the molecules in the pot does not change the molecules in the pot freeze solid, or the molecules in the pot begin to move slower or the molecules in the pot began to move faster.

The molecules in the pot of soup will begin to move faster. Heating the soup transfers thermal energy to the molecules, causing them to gain kinetic energy and vibrate faster. This increased movement leads to an increase in the soup's temperature.
