Atoms are in constant motion.
2. More kinetic energy = more motion.

3. Therefore… 3. More motion = higher temperatures.
Temperature is a measure of the average ____________of the atoms that make up something.
kinetic energy

4. II. Measuring Temperature
As a rule, objects ______________ as their temperature _______________.
expand
increases
The substance in a typical thermometer is mercury OR alcohol.
As the mercury gains kinetic energy, it moves faster causing the molecules to spread out (the mercury expands).
