Temperature and kinetics

[Jina Kwon]

Do molecules have higher kinetic energy with higher temperatures?

[Diana A 2L]

Yes. At higher temperatures, molecules move faster and bump into each other more, so essentially kinetic energy will be higher.

[cassidysong 1K]

Yes, with higher temperature molecules move faster, therefore creating more kinetic energy.

[Miriam Villarreal 1J]

As a substances absorbs heat the particles move faster so the average kinetic energy and therefore the temperature increases

[Alfred Barrion 2H]

Yes, because at a higher temperature molecules move faster and have more collisions.

[Samuel Tzeng 1B]

Yes at higher temperatures, molecules have higher kinetic energy
