The sum of the kinetic energies and potential energies of all of the molecules
in a substance is called the energy of the substance?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is - internal energy.

Explanation:

The movements of the particles are continuous inside In any substance/object, within random directions and with random speeds which are termed as Brownian motion.

Due to these movements, these substances have some kinetic energy and the interaction between particles takes place due to the presence of electrostatic intermolecular forces, this leads to having some potential energy.  The sum of the kinetic energies and potential energies of the particles in a substance is called internal energy it is internal to the confines of the substance.
