Question

In which situation are the individual molecules moving the fastest ?

Answer 1

in hot warter or substant bc hot makes molecues go,s faster then all the rest

Answer 2

D) in a cup of boiling water

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. The following options are missing:

A) in a bowl of hot soup

B) in a glass of iced tea

C) in a glass of tap water

D) in a cup of boiling water

The four options involve liquids (option B probably includes some ice and option D includes steam water). As temperature increase, the speed of the individual molecules of a substance also increases. Ordering the options by temperature, from the higher to the lower, we get:

D) in a cup of boiling water

A) in a bowl of hot soup (its temperature is above ambient but not enough to boil its water)

C) in a glass of tap water (ambient temperature)

B) in a glass of iced tea (below ambient temperature)

Therefore, in option D the molecules move faster.
