Question

why do gases have the most thermal energy?
the particles do not interact, so the energy must go somewhere.
the particles of a gas are spread out, have the weakest attractive forces, and are able to quick
the particles are close together due to stronger attractive forces.
the particles of a gas are spread out and have less potential energy.

Explanation:

Thermal energy is related to the motion of particles. Gas particles are spread out, have the weakest attractive forces among the states of matter (compared to solids and liquids), and are able to move quickly. The more a particle moves (kinetic energy component of thermal energy), and considering the state - gas has more freedom of movement for its particles.

Answer:

The particles of a gas are spread out, have the weakest attractive forces, and are able to quick.
