Solution

The correct option is A Temperature
Temperature is directly proportional to kinetic energy. If the temperature is increased then the kinetic energy of molecules increases and molecules can overcome forces of attraction between them. Thus, intermolecular distances increases with increase in temperature and the state of matter changes.
