Which sequence represents the relationship between temperature and volume as explained by the kinetic-molecular theory?

According to the kinetic-molecular theory, increasing temperature gives particles more average kinetic energy. They move faster and spread farther apart, so the gas occupies more volume when pressure is held constant. Therefore, the sequence in choice C—higher temperature, more kinetic energy, more space between particles, and higher volume—is correct.
