Does the particle's size make the particle movement go slow or fast?

Well, if in a gas you have a mixture of heavier and lighter particles (atoms or molecules, really), the lighter particles will tend to move faster than the heavier particles. The general tendency is for any such particle to have the same energy (mainly kinetic energy). Similarly, in a liquid solution, lighter particles will tend to move faster.


Dose a heavier or lighter object have a greater kinetic energy?

Kinetic energy depends on mass, and speed. Since you can't easily change an object's mass, you would basically change its speed.
