To change a liquid into a solid, Jayla must "remove energy from the liquid so that its particles slow down." This process is known as freezing, where the temperature decrease leads to the particles losing energy and coming closer together to form a solid.
Jayla did an investigation about the different states of matter. As part of the investigation, she wanted to change a liquid into a solid. What must she do to bring about this change in state? (1 point)
• place the liquid in a different container
• remove energy from the liquid so that its particles slow down
• increase the energy of the liquid so that its particles move faster
• stir the liquid as quickly and thoroughly as possible
