The kinetic energy of particles would be increasing in the case where "Metal is heated from room temperature to 200°C." Heating increases the kinetic energy of particles, causing them to move more vigorously.

The particles will have more space between them and will be moving at higher speeds as steam.
The particles will have more space between them and will be moving at higher speeds as steam.
The particles will have more space between them as a liquid, but they will be moving at the same speed in both states.
The particles will have more space between them as a liquid, but they will be moving at the same speed in both states.

The particles will have more space between them as steam, but they will be moving at the same speed in both states.
The particles will have more space between them as a liquid, but they will be moving faster as steam.
The correct response is: The particles will have more space between them and will be moving at higher speeds as steam.
At 100°C, water exists as a liquid, and when it boils into steam at the same temperature, the particles become more spaced apart and move with greater kinetic energy, resulting in higher speeds.

The potential energy increases due to the looser arrangement of the particles.
The potential energy increases due to the looser arrangement of the particles.
The potential energy increases due to the tighter arrangement of the particles.
The potential energy increases due to the tighter arrangement of the particles.
The potential energy decreases due to the looser arrangement of the particles.
The potential energy decreases due to the looser arrangement of the particles.
The potential energy decreases due to the tighter arrangement of the particles.
The correct response is: The potential energy decreases due to the tighter arrangement of the particles.
As water freezes and transitions from a liquid to a solid (ice), the particles become more tightly arranged in a fixed structure, which decreases their potential energy.

a decrease in heat and a decrease in kinetic energy until a phase change occurs.
The correct response is: an increase in heat and an increase in kinetic energy until a phase change occurs.
As thermal energy increases, the heat content rises, causing an increase in the kinetic energy of the particles, which leads to increased movement and temperature until a phase change occurs.
