If you measured all the energy related to motion and all the stored energy in the particles of a substance, which would you be measuring? a. heat capacity b. heat c. thermal energy

C. thermal energy

Explanation:

Thermal energy of the system or internal energy of the system is defined as the sum of kinetic energy of all the molecules of the system

As we add the kinetic energy of all the molecules then the sum of this kinetic energy is related to the temperature of the system

It is given as

so here we can say that thermal energy would be the sum of kinetic energy of all the system molecules and it measures the energy related to motion of the system molecules

so correct answer would be

C. thermal energy

hi there!

out of the two, (b) precision would be more reasonable.   however, both a and b could be pretty reasonable.
