During which changes of state doe the motion of the atoms decrease

Melting and deposition

Freezing and condensation

Condensation and evaporation

Vaporization and sublimation

The answer is freezing and condensation. The motion of atoms will decrease when the temperature of a substance is lowered. The lower the temperature is, the slower the motion of atoms is. They have less kinetic energy.

Therfore, only freezing and condensation is a change of state from higher temperature to lower temperature.
