BRAINLIESTTTT ASAP!!!! PLEASE ANSWER

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 :

I believe the answer is the third option, they move fast enough to overcome the forces of attraction that hold them together, becoming a gas. If I remember correctly, when kinetic energy increases, the molecules in the liquid gain more energy to move around, and they break their bonds to become more sporadic and gaseous.
