Like all molecules, a molecule of H20 is in constant motion; 'hot' molecules move faster than 'cold' molecules. If the molecules move slowly enough the substance appears stationary to us (frozen water) and if they move quickly enough they will expand to fill their container (vapor or gas water.)

What will happen in the temperature of water when heated?
If You're suggesting what happens to water when heated then the answer is: Water molecules speed up by the heat increasing it's temperature and when it reaches 100 Degrees the molecules are so fast that the water turn into a gas (Steam) But if you are just asking about the temperature then; When you heat water the temperature also increases.
What happens to liquids and gases as they are heated?
The molecules in side move or spread apart
When water is heated the water molecules gain and move more rapidly?
yes they do
How does the mean speed of the water molecules changes as they are heated?
X
When liquid water is heated do molecules collide more often?
Yes, as liquid water is heated, the kinetic energy of its molecules increases, causing them to move faster and collide more often. This increased movement and collisions among the water molecules lead to a rise in temperature.
