How does an increase in the total energy of the particles in a substance affect the thermal energy of the substance?

Thermal energy at the molecular level is a reflection of how fast their random motion and how "agitated" they might appear were you able to view them. In more detailed terms their nett thermal energy U is the sum of U(rot), how fast they are spinning, + U(trans) - how fast they are moving in one particular direction, and + U(vib) - where the atoms in the molecule would seem to bounce back and forth in their bonds with respect to the position of other atoms. Increasing the thermal energy would increase the speed of these motions.

How does thermal energy affect the movement of particles?
For the most part, the movement of particles is the thermal energy of a substance. However, some of the thermal energy has other forms. This is especially noticeable at very low temperatures.
Does the size of the particles of solute affect the solubility of the substance?
The size of the particles of solute do not affect the solubility of a substance, which is determined by its chemical composition, but it does affect how quickly it dissolves. The smaller the particles of the solute, the faster it will dissolve.
How does thermal energy affect the state of substance?
scientific method
Do the number of particles in an object affect its thermal energy but not its temperature?
TRUE
How does adding energy to matter by heating it affect the energy of its particles?
Adding heat will do one of the following, or both: * The temperature of the substance increases. The individual particles move faster; their kinetic energy increases. * The substance changes its state (for example, when ice melts, it changes from solid to liquid). The potential energy of the particles increases.
How does an increase in total energy of the particles in a substance affect the thermal energy of the substance?
How does an increase in the total energy of the particles in a substance affect the thermal energy of the substance.
How does increasing the temperature of a substance affect the kinetic energy of its particles?
inc temp, increases the ave. KE of the particles.

How does temperature or heat energy affect particle movement?
Temperature is a measure of particle movement. An increase of temperature, in a sense is an increase of the average movement of the particles within the substance, to include vibrations, spins, and lateral movement.
How do you increase the distance between the particles affect the force between them?

How does adding energy to matter affect the energy of its particles?
The energy will increase and the particles will speed up.
Does shape of solids affect the rate of dissolving?
Yes; the dissolution rate is increased when a substance is as small particles.
