The molecules of a gas are in constant random motion. This means that they have energy in what type of energy store?

Whether a substance is a gas, liquid, or solid is dependent on the natural attractive forces between molecules andthe collisions between the molecules.the kinetic energy of the molecules.how the molecules collide with the container.the extent of molecular motion as determined by the average KE and temperature.
