Sort the statements based on whether the described outcomes result from thermal energy being added or being removed. particles move faster. particles move slower. temperature increases. temperature decreases. kinetic energy increases. kinetic energy decreases.

Explanation:

Thermal energy is defined as the internal energy of an object because of the kinetic energy present within the molecules of the object.

So, when thermal energy is added to an object then kinetic energy within its molecules will also increase. As a result, temperature of the object will also increase due to increase in number of collisions between the molecules.

And, on decreasing thermal energy there will occur a decrease in the kinetic energy of the molecules of an object. As a result, motion of particles will slow down.

Therefore, we can conclude that the given statements are matched as follows.

Thermal energy added:

- Particles move faster.

- Temperature increases.

- Kinetic energy increases.

Thermal energy removed:

- Particles move slower.

- Temperature decreases.

- Kinetic energy decreases.

the answer is c i believe

im not exactly sure but i think its b!
