Question

the image shows particles in three different states of matter. select the correct option from the following. gas liquid solid particles in only the third container possess kinetic energy particles in only the first container possess kinetic energy particles in only the first and second containers possess kinetic energy particles in all three containers possess kinetic energy

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. Particles in all states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) are in motion. In solids, particles vibrate in fixed positions; in liquids, they move more freely; and in gases, they move rapidly. So, particles in all three containers (gas, liquid, solid) have kinetic energy.

Answer:

Particles in all three containers possess kinetic energy.
