Question
Water freezes to form ice. What change would you expect in the average kinetic energy of the molecules?
Short Note
Solution
The average kinetic energy of the molecules decreases as water freezes to produce ice because the temperature of the water molecules drops, and they hold to one another to form a crystal.
