the energy associated with the random motion of atoms and molecules is know as:
thermal energy
nuclear energy
chemical energy
radiant energy

Explanation:

Thermal energy is the energy that comes from the random motion of atoms and molecules. Nuclear energy is related to the nucleus of an atom (like in nuclear reactions). Chemical energy is stored in chemical bonds (e.g., in fuels). Radiant energy is energy carried by electromagnetic waves (like light).
