Question

Define temperature using molecular theory

Answer 1

Clearly, temperature has to do with the kinetic energy of the molecules, and if the molecules act like independent point masses, then we could define temperature in terms of the average translational kinetic energy of the molecules, the so-called "kinetic temperature".

Answer 2

Answer: At the molecular level, temperature is related to the random motions of the particles (atoms and molecules) in matter. ... The temperature of the puddle, or of any object, is a measure of the average of the individual translational energies of all of its atoms or molecules.
