Answer

When vibration of molecules increases, the temperature, internal energy and kinetic energy of the substance increases.

Explanations

The kinetic theory of matter explains that when vibration of molecules increase as a result of heat, molecules move faster and the space between atoms increases. The increased molecular motion results into expansion of the object which takes more space. Increased vibration can make a molecule absorb discrete amounts of energy through the various vibration modes. When the motion increases, the velocity of the entire molecule rises as a random Brownian movement to increase the kinetic energy and internal energy of the molecule.
