If you slow the motion of water molecules down, what are they more likely to become?

Ice.
Explanation:
If the kinetic energy of water particles were to slow down, that means the temperature of the particles are dropping.
As a result, it will form ice.
Kinetic energy and temperature are directly proportional. If heat is added, the kinetic energy increases, which forms a gas (if original state was liquid).
Vice versa and you get ice. This can be accomplished by freezing the water.
Hope this helps :)
