When water freezes, the temperature decreases and therefore, the average kinetic energy will decrease as well.
Explanation:
The average kinetic energy
which means that the average kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature .
When water freezes, the temperature decreases and therefore, the average kinetic energy will decrease as well.
