Students have asked these similar questions
A student left a sealed jar of water outside her home. Water can be a solid,
liquid, or gas. When she put it outside, the water was a solid. Twelve hours
later, the water had changed phase and was a liquid. What happened to the
water molecules?
3. Is solid > liquid → gas an endothermic or exothermic process? Describe how this energy change
affects the energy of the molecules and their intermolecular forces.
Which method would you use to determine water content in packaging material, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics? Mention few advantages of this method.

A molecular-scale snapshot of the position of molecules in the liquid phase would look more like a snapshot of an amorphous solid than a snapshot of a crystalline solid.
