Answer:

  • (A.) Kinetic energy decreases
  • (B.) Force of attraction increases
  • (C.) Space between particles remains the same

Step-by-step explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy in motion. Cooling if liquid would cause decreased temperature and hence slow down the oscillation of the particles.

Likewise, increased heat reduces the force of attraction between said particles, which allowed for their free movement. So the cooling would have opposite effect.

Finally, the space between the particles would remain the same as it was originally, as their force of attraction is increased in the cooling process, they would take the form they are held in.

I hope this was helpful and concise?
