Molecules move in random motion within a liquid. The total internal energy of the liquid depends on all of the following except its?

  • A temperature
  • B mass
  • C specific heat capacity
  • D melting point

The correct answer is D. melting point

Internal energy is affected by factors such as pressure, volume, and temperature.

All of the variables in this list are state functions. Mass, volume, pressure, temperature, density, and entropy are all examples of state functions.
