Answer:

a.the same as

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature of each 400mL bucket is about the same as the temperature of the original bucket of paint.

This is because the temperature of the paint inside the bucket is not dependent on the amount of paint present.

  • In this regard, the temperature is an intensive property.
  • So each of the boxes will have a temperature that is the same as that of the original bucket.
  • Each of the particles have the same amount of kinetic energy.
