    Kinetic energy has increased.

    The Kinetic Molecular Theory of gases states that the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature.

    Thus, if the temperature of the air in a room has increased, the average kinetic energy of its molecules has increased.
