The appropriate term is latent heat. This energy is released as the water changes state from a gas to liquid....a liquid to solid etc. the latent heat is either absorbed or given off by the water as it changes its physical state. Latent heat of fusion is associated with freezing a liquid or melting a solid.
Salt water is not an example of suspension as salt dissolves in water and combines with it rather than float in the water.
Velocity, because if an object is in motion with no direction we will consider it as speed, but if it has direction we will consider it as Velocity. Hope it helps
