Question

The diagram shows changes of state between solid, liquid, and gas. The atoms of a substance lose energy during a change of state. Before the change, the atoms are close together but are able to slide past one another.

A diagram has a triangle at center with gas on top, liquid on bottom right, solid on bottom left. An arrow from gas to liquid is labeled O, and an arrow from liquid to gas is labeled N. An arrow from solid to liquid is labeled P, and an arrow from liquid to solid is labeled Q. An arrow from solid to gas is labeled L, and an arrow from gas to solid is labeled M.

Which arrow represents the change of state described above?

°M
°N
°P
°Q

Answer 1

the answer is q or the last one

Answer 2

The answer is Q because atoms in water are not super spread out like in gas but if they are losing energy then it has to be turning to a solid where the atoms do not have much energy. In a solid the atoms are close together not being able to move past each other.
