What effect does temperature have on the average kinetic energy of gas particles (Pressure in gases (physics only))

The correct answer is Higher temperature increases kinetic energy.

Boundary lens: Keep this separate from nearby specification points that use similar words but test a different idea. This question asks: What effect does temperature have on the average kinetic energy of gas particles (Pressure in gases (physics only)). The correct response is Higher temperature increases kinetic energy, because density links mass and volume, so the answer must preserve which quantity is being calculated. In Pressure in gases (physics only), the marking point should connect directly to (Physics only) Explain how changing the volume of a fixed mass of gas changes the frequency of particle collisions with container walls. If the question includes values, the working must keep the appropriate unit and operation; if it is an explanation, it must name the relevant particle behaviour or energy change. This item belongs to Particle model and pressure, so avoid answers that switch to a different quantity, confuse heat with temperature, or describe gas pressure without collisions when collisions are the reason. Checkpoint 514 is distinct because it uses this exact question context and the boundary lens rather than a generic particle-model sentence.
