As the liquid cools it loses kinetic energy and the particles slow down, the liquid becomes more of a solid state

Most liquids, when cooled, will solidify and contract (decrease in volume). Water, on the other hand, actually expands when it freezes into ice. The volume of water will increase by about 9% when it freezes.
