Answer Details
According to the kinetic theory of matter, all matter is made up of particles that are in constant motion. The kinetic energy of a particle is the energy it possesses due to its motion. An increase in temperature means that the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance increases. So, when the temperature of a substance increases, the kinetic energy of its particles also increases. Therefore, the correct answer is "Increase".
