I know that molecules have kinetic and potential energy to make up internal energy. When the temperature of an object increases, the internal energy increases.
When the kinetic energy doubles, the temperature doubles as KE is directly proportional to the kelvin temperature. Does this mean the potential energy stays the same when the temperature of an object is changing? (as i know it increases when the object is changing state at constant temperature)
