Which of the following best explains what happens when the kinetic energy of particles in a liquid state increases?

1.They vibrate more slowly, causing the forces of attraction holding them together to increase, resulting in a solid.
2. They vibrate fast enough to overcome the forces of attraction holding them together and become a gas.
3 They vibrate so slowly that the particles are no longer held together, resulting in a gas.
4 They vibrate so quickly that the particles ionize and become plasma.
