Answer 1

Answer:

The water releases energy which causes the water molecules to have less kinetic and potential energy, changing their configuration from liquid to solid.

Explanation:

The conversion of water to ice is a phase change from liquid to solid. There is no chemical action taking place in this process just the state of matter taking up a new form.

• This phase change is called freezing.
• In freezing, the liquid water loses energy to the surroundings.
• By so doing, the water molecules have lesser energy
• The then take up fixed position within the lattice.
• This changes the state to solid with a well - ordered arrangement.
