c. Molecular energy will increase, and the substance will change from a gas to a liquid.
are you completely sure?
Apologies for the confusion in my previous response.
If enough thermal energy is removed from the system, causing a change in state, the correct answer is:
d. Molecular energy will decrease, and the substance will change from a gas to a liquid.
Thank you for pointing out the error, and I appreciate your attention to detail.
