Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles.

✓ TRUE FACT
Higher temperature means higher average particle kinetic energy (in many systems). In ideal gases, average translational kinetic energy is proportional to (T) via ( \tfrac{3}{2}kT).

🤯 "Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles. Heat is motion in disguise."
