Observe the diagram below. Which container of water has molecules with the greatest average kinetic energy? The options are 36°C, □container a. 42°C, □container b. 68°C, □container c. 82°C, □container d.
D, 82 C. This is because when the heat increases he motion of the particles increases, increasing the total kinetic energy. Therefore, the hotter an object the more kinetic energy.
