Density: Mass per unit volume. The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the molecules of the Temperature: fluid.In fact,if KE is the mean molecular kinetic energy,then temperature is given by KE=3kT/2, where k is the Boltzmann constant. velocity is the rate of change of position.It is Velocity: a vector physical quantity;both speed and direction are required to define it
