Hello there! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Freezing is the process by which a liquid becomes a solid. The temperature at which a specific liquid becomes a solid is the freezing point.

It change to liquid to solid.

  • Water: 0⁰ C (32⁰F)

Below the freezing and melting point, the substance is a solid.

Above the freezing and melting point, the substabce is a liquid.

As the temperature decreases, the atom:

  • lose to their energy
  • and move slower

Strong attractions among atoms cause the liquid to become a solid.

I hope this helps you!

Have a great day! :)
