As a substance reaches its boiling point it changes from a liquid to a gas. As this happens the bonds that are holding the molecules together break allowing the molecules to wander off on their own as a gas. 6. As a substance reaches its freezing point it turns from a liquid to a solid.
Water molecules have more energy in liquid form than in solid form. As the temperature of the liquid becomes lower, the energy is reduced, which causes the water molecules to slow down. When the temperature reaches freezing level, the molecules stick together to form solid ice. However, the molecules are still in motion. There is more to water freezing than just getting cold.
