Which factor is defined as the average kinetic energy of a substance?
a. the mass of the substance
b. the volume of the substance
c. the pressure of the substance
d. the temperature of the substance

D. Temperature is the factor based upon which the average kinetic energy of the substance depends upon.

The kinetic theory of gases depicts a gas as countless submicroscopic particles, which are all in steady, fast, arbitrary movement. The haphazardness emerges from the particles' numerous crashes with one another and with the dividers of the holder.  

This theory of gases clarifies the perceptible properties of gases, for example, weight, temperature, thickness, warm conductivity, and volume, by thinking about their atomic synthesis and movement. The hypothesis places that gas weight results from particles' crashes with the dividers of a compartment at various speeds.
