Question

What happens when a liquid becomes a gas?


Open in App
Solution

The liquid becomes gas:

  1. Whenever a liquid turns into a gas, the particles absorb heat energy and begin to vibrate faster, increasing the separation between them.
  2. Intermolecular interactions weaken as a result of continual vibration, and molecules begin to move apart and transform into gas.
  3. Whenever a liquid changes into a gaseous solution or steaming, the intermolecular interactions between water molecules weaken.
  4. Intermolecular forces are typically highest in the solid state and lightest in the gas phase for any particular substance.
