(A) Adding water: Adding water does not change the state of matter. So, option A is incorrect.

(B) Changing the container: Changing the container does not change the state of matter. So, option B is incorrect.

(C) Taking a greater mass of a substance: By taking grater amount of substance does not change the extent of intermolecular forces. So, option C is also incorrect.
