Object Kinetic Energy Of Molecules(J)

a 1.50 x 10^4

b 1.73 x 10^5

c 2.73 x 10^3

d 5.06 x 10^4



Answers:

(a)object C

(b)object A

(c)object B

(d)object D

Verified Answer :

I can't see the chart.

But by kinetic energy theory, the temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.

So a low kinetic energy would depict a low temperature and a high kinetic energy would depict a high temperature.

So from this theory the particle with the highest temperature would be the one with the highest kinetic energy.

And that is by b,  with a value of 1.73 x 10^5 J.

(c)object B
