Answer : The correct option is (3) Evaporation.

Explanation :

Evaporation : It is a process in which the liquid particles are converted to gaseous particles. The inter-molecular forces of attraction between the liquid particles will be weakened. As a result the phase change occurs.

Freezing : It is a process in which a phase changes from liquid state to solid state.

Condensation : It is a process in which a phase changes from gaseous state to liquid state.

Crystallization : It is a process in which a solute particles get separated from the solvent in the form of crystals ( in solid phase).

Whereas in freezing, condensation and crystallization we are moving from one phase having weaker inter-molecular forces of attraction to another phase having stronger inter-molecular forces of attraction. So, in these processes strengthening of attraction between the particles takes place.

Hence, the correct answer is Evaporation.
