Which statement describes the relationship between thermal energy and particle movement?

The options are not given, here are the options.

A)There is an indirect relationship: as thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement.

B) There is an indirect relationship: as thermal energy increases, there is less particle movement.

c) There is a direct relationship: as thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement.

d) There is a direct relationship: as thermal energy increases, there is less particle movement.

The correct option is C.

There is a direct relationship: as thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement.

Explanation:

There is a direct relationship: as thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement because when there is increase in thermal energy or heat in a substance, the particles start to vibrate and move faster as a result of the particles gaining kinetic energy which is as a result of increased collision and diffussion rates.

As they vibrate the space between the particles increases which result in increase in motion or movement of the particle
