in a system of gas, if we double the temperature what happens to the energy of the particles?
the energy quadruples.
the energy halves.
the energy doubles.
the energy stays the same.

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of gas particles is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas, described by the relation $E_k = \frac{3}{2}kT$, where $E_k$ is average kinetic energy, $k$ is Boltzmann's constant, and $T$ is absolute temperature. Doubling the absolute temperature will double the average kinetic energy of the particles.

Answer:

The energy doubles.
