When the temperature of a substance the motion of the atoms that make up that substance .?
Increase, increase
Tiny particles in motion make up all matter?
All matter is made up of 'atoms', which are generally treated as tiny particles, although they have been shown to also have the properties of waves (just like light has both particle and wave nature). They are constantly in motion, and move faster in matter at a higher temperature. The temperature at which this motion is zero is -273C or 0K, absolute zero and is impossible to achieve.
What do you add to kinetic energy to increase heat?
This doesn't really make sense. If you apply heat to a substance you increase the kinetic energy of its particles, which we perceive as an increase in temperature.
What is the average kinetic energy of all atoms and molecules that make up a substance called?
Temperature, which is the average kinetic energy of all the particles that make up a substance. :0temperature
Particles that make up matter are in what motion?
translationalrotationalvibrationalquantum tunneling (rare)
When the temperature of a substance the motion of the atoms that make up that substance .?

What is a measure of the average kinetic energy in the particles of a substance?
Temperature, which is the average kinetic energy of all the particles that make up a substance. :0temperature
Heat is what in motion?
As energy is added to a substance, the particles that make up the substance vibrate faster. This is what causes substances to change state (solid to liquid to gas). As the particles move faster, the structure changes.
What are the roles of particles in the transfer of heat?
When energy is transfered to a system of particles, the system is said to be heated. The particles absorb this energy and convert it to kinetic energy, causing their translational motions to increase. Temperature is a measure of the average translational motion of particles. Hence, heating an object causes the particles that make up that object to move more and these motions manifest themselves in what we know as the temperature of the object. In fact in the absolute temperature scale of thermodynamics a zero temperature corresponds to a system of particles in which there is no motion.

Do the particles in solids move?
Particles within are limited to vibrational motion, unlike the particles which make up liquids which can have vibrational & translational motion, and gaseous particles which have vibrational, translational and rotational motion.
Is temperature a measure of the kinetic energy of an object?
Yes. Temperature in Kelvins a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles that make up the substance. The higher the temperature the greater the kinetic energy. The lower the temperature the lower the kinetic energy. At absolute zero there is no movement of particles, hence no kinetic energy.
Thermal energy or heat energy?
Thermal Energy is the energy that comes from the random motion of the particles the make up a substance. The greater the movement of particles the greater the temperature. Movement. > TemperatureAnswerThe terms, 'thermal energy' and 'heat energy' are obsolete. The modern term for what used to be called 'thermal energy' or 'heat energy' is 'internal energy'. These days, 'heat' is considered not to be a 'form of energy', but energy in transit between a higher temperature to a lower temperature.
What particles that make up matter are in a state of?
Particles that make up matter are in a state of constant motion.
Tiny particles in motion make up all matter?
All matter is made up of 'atoms', which are generally treated as tiny particles, although they have been shown to also have the properties of waves (just like light has both particle and wave nature). They are constantly in motion, and move faster in matter at a higher temperature. The temperature at which this motion is zero is -273C or 0K, absolute zero and is impossible to achieve.
If the particles of matter that make up a substance are relatively far apart and can move freely the substance?
This substance is a gas.
