Question

question 10 of 28 which of the following is a measure of the total kinetic and potential energy of the particles in a substance? a thermal energy b latent heat c specific heat capacity d temperature

Explanation:

Thermal energy is defined as the total kinetic and potential energy of all particles in a substance. Latent heat relates to phase changes, specific heat capacity to temperature change, and temperature measures average kinetic energy, not total.

Answer:

A. Thermal energy
