Which of the following best explains what happens when the kinetic energy of particles in a liquid state increases?
They move slowly enough that the particles are no longer held together, resulting in a gas.
They move slower, increasing the forces of attraction that hold them together and forming a solid.
They move fast enough to overcome the forces of attraction that hold them together, becoming a gas.
They move faster, decreasing the forces of attraction that hold them together and causing particles to ionize and become plasma.

Respuesta :

They move fast enough to overcome the forces of attraction that hold them together, becoming a gas.

ITS THAT :)

Answer:

They move fast enough to overcome the forces of attraction that hold them together, becoming a gas.

Explanation:

Particles in matter are always in motion. Motion of the particles gives rise to kinetic energy.  Gases have high kinetic energy. Liquids have kinetic energy that is greater than solids but less than gases. When the kinetic energy of liquids increases they undergo phase transition and get converted to gas.  The higher kinetic energy helps to overcome the strong intermolecular forces of attraction between the liquid particles.
