Destiney Spears · Answer 1

The arrangement of the water molecules begins to spread apart. (They would condense to form ice.)

Ismael Kerr · Answer 2

As ice melts the molecules become less compact and start vibrating harder until the ice has changed state into liquid. They eventually form clumps of molecules and flow in their groups.
