What happens as a result of the kinetic energy of the particles in a liquid being comparable with the intermolecular attractions between the particles?

A The particles do not move enough to change positions, so the liquid is not compressible.

B The particles move enough that they separate from one another and take the shape of their container.

C The particles do not move enough, so they are fixed in place, and the liquid has a fixed volume.

D The particles move enough that they are not fixed in place, and the liquid can flow.

    Answer : Option D) The particles move enough that they are not fixed in place, and the liquid can flow.

    Explanation : The kinetic energy of the particles are allowed to move freely and are in motion when in the liquid state whereas the intermolecular particles can just flow; as the intermolecular attractions between the particles allows the liquid to flow by giving them a force to flow.
