How does temperature affect the kinetic energy of gas molecules?

In numbering carbon atoms in the parent chain of a hydrocarbon, why would you number from right to left, rather than left to right

How is energy related to the change of state represented by the model? atoms gain energy as a solid changes to a liquid. atoms gain energy as a solid changes to a gas. atoms lose energy as a solid changes to a liquid. atoms lose energy as a solid changes to a gas.

Convert the temperature of dry ice, –77 ∞c, into degrees fahrenheit and kelvin.
