I assume you mean what happens to the molecules... They slow down due to the loss of kinetic energy when the liquid is cooled. When they are sufficiently cooled as to cause freezing, that's a different story.

What happens when air molcules are cooled?
As air molecules are cooled, they condense and form a liquid, and if cooled even further, will form a solid.
What is it called Fewer molecules spread apart?
When a liquid or gas is heated, the molecules move faster, bump into each other, and spread apart. Because the molecules are spread apart, they take up more space. They are less dense. The opposite occurs when a liquid or gas is cooled.
How do you turn nitrogen from a gas to a liquid?
in general you need to two things: But Liquid Nitrogen is not made this way. 1st it needs to be cooled very cold. Then it needs to be compressed. The proccess usually does this both at the same time, Cooled Nitrogen is run through a compressor and then cooled agian, and then super cooled to create Liquid. It is produced using a proccess called fractional distilation of air resulting in Liquid Oxegen and Liquid Nitrogen.
Is candle wax an example of amorphous?
Yes, because wax is a super cooled liquid. Its molecules are arrange in a random manner, just like a liquid. So wax is amorphous because if you heat it and drip it onto your hand, it is shapeless and lacks organization.
What is true if a liquid and a gas are in equilibrium?
liquid molecules forming a gas and gas molecule forming a liquid are equal in number
How liquid is cooled?
By slowing the molecules down
What happens when air molcules are cooled?

What would happen if you cool the gas?
it would turn into liquid because molecules gain energy and join forces as they are cooled.

What happens to the rate of the evaporation of a liquid as the liquid is cooled?
When a liquid is cooled, the rate of evaporation slows down
Does water expand or contract when frozen?
expands because hydrogen bond operates the molecules and increase the average distance between molecules
Why does liquid turn into a solid when it's cooled?
The cause of a liquid turning into a solid is that the molecules from a liquid start to decrease because of the temperature dropping lower until the molecules are squeezed together and hold a shape.
When a sample of liquid is cooled its thermal energy?
When a sample of liquid is cooled its thermal energy goes to its surroundings
What substance would gas change into if it was cooled?
a liquid then if cooled further it would turn into a solid a liquid then if cooled further it would turn into a solid
What is the liquid in a liquid cooled snowmobile?
antifreeze coolant
Did Apple ever make a liquid cooled computer?
Yes, Apple did manufacture liquid-cooled computers. Some configurations of the PowerMac G5 computer (notably, the quad-core systems) were liquid-cooled.
How does temperature affect the viscosity of liquid?
Cold temperatures slows the molecules in the liquid evenyually freezing it. Hot temperatures makes the molecules move faster making it boil. Think about grease ad wax, when they are cold they are solid, when heated they become liquid.
