When you have a pot of water on the stove, heat is transferred to the water. Describe the behavior of the water molecules and how temperature is affected.

Respuesta :

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is possessed due to the motion of the particles. The kinetic energy depends on the velocity.

The kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature. The kinetic energy  of the particles increases with the rise in temperature.

In the given problem, the pot of water is placed on the stove. Then, heat is transferred to the water. The water molecules will move faster with the rise in temperature of the water. The water molecules will have greater kinetic energy due to increase in temperature.

Answer:  Heat is transferred to the water. The water molecules become more active, and the temperature of the water rises.
