    In a liquid, for example water (H2O), the molecules are in constant motion. When water loses energy, its molecular motion decreases. As a result water molecules get pulled closer and experience a stronger force of attraction (cohesive forces). If sufficient energy is lost, the physical state of water can change from liquid to solid. Hence the correct choices are:

    the liquid may become a solid particle

    the liquid may become a slower moving liquid particle
