Solution

The correct option is D Condensation
The process of changing a gas into liquid is called condensation. Gases have weaker intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids. If the pressure is increased in a gas, its molecules are brought in close contact with each other. The attractive forces eventually become strong enough to hold the molecules close together and thus the gas condense to form liquid.
