Underline the correct words to complete the sentences: When a glass of milk cools down, its constituent particles (speeds up/slows down). This means that the kinetic energy of each particle (increases/decreases), such that the total kinetic energy of the milk (increases/decreases). When the milk freezes, the constituent particles become (closer together/farther apart), so the strength of the intermolecular forces (increases/ decreases) and the total potential energy (increases/decreases). Hence, the internal energy of the milk (increases/decreases).

Question

Answer the following, and explain each of your answers:

Underline the correct words to complete the sentences: When a
glass of milk cools down, its constituent particles (speeds
up/slows down). This means that the kinetic energy of each
particle (increases/decreases), such that the total kinetic energy
of the milk (increases/decreases). When the milk freezes, the
constituent particles become (closer together/farther apart),
so the strength of the intermolecular forces (increases/
decreases) and the total potential energy (increases/decreases).
Hence, the internal energy of the milk (increases/decreases).
