If you measured all the energy related to motion and all the stored energy in the particles of a substance, which would you be measuring? heat capacity heat thermal energy

Heat is a form of energy which can be given off by any object above absolute zero, Heat capacity is the ability of an object to absorb heat before a resultant change in temperature, Thermal energy is what we measure if are measuring all the forms of energy of an object or particle whether it is kinetic or potential.

If you measured all the energy related to motion and all the stored energy in the particles of a substance, you would be measuring the thermal energy of the particles. If there is movement of the particles, they are also releasing energy in the form of heat.
