The average kinetic energy of the molecules of gas in an aerosol increase "triple" when the temperature is raised from 27 C to 627 C.

Explanation:

Particles that are small enough can stay in a gas for fairly long periods of time, in general. As it is understood, certain molecules with some minimum kinetic energy will escape from a liquid surface. As the temperature increases, kinetic energy increases, and therefore evaporation increases. Evaporation also drains off body heat.

As temperature increase the kinetic energy of the molecules of gas in an aerosol hike by triple rate, as the aerosol is a suspension of small solid particles or droplets of liquid in air or other fluid such as fog, dust, haze, smoke, which are very fine in nature, thus spread faster.
