Thermal energy is THE MEASURE OF TEMPERATURE IN A SYSTEM.
Thermal energy refers to the internal energy that is present in a system as a result of its temperature. The motion of the particles of an object depends on the temperature of the object and the higher the temperature, the faster the movement of the particles. The reverse is also true.
<span>The arrangement of the periodic table leads us to visualize certain trends among the atoms. The vertical columns ( basically their groups) of the periodic table and they are arranged such that all its elements have the same number of valence electrons. And all the elements within a certain group thus share similar properties and that's about it.</span>
This is because, only <span> weak van der Waals forces or weak London dispersion forces are present between the atoms of the </span><span>noble gases.
Hope this helps!</span>
