The temperature of 500 mL of water is 16°C. What happens to the water when thermal energy is transferred to it? A. The volume of the water increases because thermal energy increases as volume increases. B. The temperature of the water increases because the average kinetic energy of the water molecules increases. C. The volume of the water decreases because thermal energy decreases as volume decreases. D. The temperature of the water decreases because the average kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.
