When a thermal energy is applied to a container of gas the volume of the gas will increase
Heating a gas makes its atoms and molecules move faster and that way increases the kinetic energy of the particles causing the gas expansion and the increase of its volume and pressure.
Otherwise when the thermal energy is removed, the atoms or molecules start to move slower and become denser until the substance condenses.
What is kinetic energy?
It is the energy possessed by a body due to its relative motion. It is usually expressed in Joules (J).
