    Answer;

    C. average transnational kinetic energy of the particles in an object

    Explanation; Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. Thermal energy measures the total kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. The greater the motion of particles, the higher a substance's temperature and thermal energy. Therefore we could say that the average kinetic energy of a gas particle is directly proportional to the temperature. Hence an increase in temperature increases the speed in which the gas molecules move. All gases at a given temperature have the same average kinetic energy.
