Question
With reference to inter-conversion of matter – on the basis of kinetic theory – explain in brief the conversion of A liquid into a solid With special reference to inter-particle space & interparticle attraction at the different stages of conversion.

Solution
A liquid into a solid :
- Potential energy (stored) is-released.
- Inter-particle space-decreases.
- Inter-particle attraction-increases. Particles are not in a position to be free.
- Collision-decreases.
Liquid changes into solid.
