Question

What happens to the movement of molecules when their temperature is raised lowered?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The motion of the particles is increased by raising the temperature. Conversely, the motion of the particles is reduced by lowering the temperature, until, at the absolute zero (0 K), the motion of the particles ceases altogether. Because the particles are in motion, they will have kinetic energy.

Answer 2

Answer:

Microscopic view of a liquid at a low temperature. ... Note how temperature effects the motion of the atoms or molecules in a liquid. As the temperature of a solid, liquid or gas increases, the particles move more rapidly. As the temperature falls, the particles slow down.
