6.2.1

6.2.1 Describe the kinetic theory in terms of the movement of particles whose average energy is proportional to temperature in Kelvin.

 I can describe kinetic theory:

Temperature is kelvins is proportional to the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. Basically, kinetic energy is the reason particles are able to move randomly.

The picture shows a kinetic theory apparatus. The kinetic theory apparatus has two cardboard pieces which represents volume and beads that are given energy by increasing the voltage. Increasing the voltage is an analogy of increasing the temperature. As the temperature is increased, particles have more kinetic energy therefore move faster and collide with the insides of the container and cardboard more often causing the cardboard pieces to go up. This shows an increase in volume.
