Explain in detail what happens to the motion of particles in a metal tray as it is placed into the hot oven

The particles gain more kinetic energy and begin to move faster

Explanation:

Based on the kinetic theory of matter, matter is made up of particles, which are in a constant state of random motion.

This means that the tiny particles of the metal tray are continuously moving about. Furthermore, for the particles to move about, they need energy. This can come in various forms. It can be chemical, kinetic, or light, etc.

Once the metal tray is placed in the oven the particles get some kinetic energy from the heat of the hot oven. The metal particles begin to vibrate about their mean position a lot quicker than ever before. This leads to an increase in the temperature of the metal tray.

If this continues, they will be able to break the metallic bonds holding them together, causing a change of state from solid to liquid, which we will be able to perceive as the melting of the tray.

your answer is, orbit around the nucleus
