Answer:

B. freezing

Step-by-step explanation:

During freezing, atoms lose energy. In this process, the molecules lose heat energy and they cool down. This reduces randomness of the matter.

  • In sublimation, heat is added to a matter, the molecules are agitated and their entropy increases.
  • Boiling and melting are similar in that these processes heat is supplied.
  • Then the particles are agitated and the molecules will tend to move apart more rapidly.
