Explanation:
As a liquid is cooled its molecules lose kinetic energy and their motion slows. When they’ve slowed to where intermolecular attractive forces exceed the collisional forces from random motion, then a phase transition from liquid to solid state takes place and the material freezes. These attractive forces can be any of several types: covalent, hydrogen (polar), ionic, or Van der Waals.
