The atoms and molecules in a gas are in constant motion. Temperature is a measure of their speed as they move. How are these related

The higher the temperature of the gas, the faster the molecules move as they approach evaporating temperature. The lower the temperature of the gas, the slower the molecules move as they approach cooling temperature. The temperature controls how fast the molecules move

As temperature increases, the molecules and atoms move faster.
