A substance gains heat, or otherwise known as thermal energy, in many different ways. These can be from pressure, friction, the transformation of chemical energy to thermal energy, the transformation of electromagnetic energy to thermal energy, potential energy to the energy of motion (kinetic energy) or a substance can become exothermic during, and after a chemical change if the amount of energy produced from the broken bonds is greater than the amount of energy required for rearranged bonds to be made.
The process of a liquid turning into gas is called evaporation. This is when the particles in the liquid gain heat energy and diffuse off as a gas form.
As energy is absorbed, the energy moves up to other electron shell levels, but as the energy is released, it goes back to zero (ground state) and the energy is given off as light.
The movement of the molecules increase with the temperature and more and more molecules gain more energy and can escape from the liquid and are transformed in gas.
Heat is a form of energy. It is just being transferred to the temperature bath (air, water, whatever). It hasn't been destroyed.
Evaporation because it requires 2,260 Joules to gain heat energy. Condensation, freezing, and melting require less Joules than evaporation.
Water molecules gain energy in order to vaporize. That additional energy is needed in order for the water molecules to overcome the attraction that they have for the other water molecules in the liquid that they are part of. In the gas phase, water molecules move independently of each other and are not connected as they are in the liquid state.
How about you have a look at the bottom of this page! It's been answered many times! :)

substances can gain thermal energy by heating them or applying electric shocks
The particles of the substance gain kinetic energy as they absorb heat energy. Eventually there is enough kinetic energy for the particles to escape the liquid phase, forming the gas phase.

Water gains energy in evaporation to become water vapour.
gain heat energy.
The paticles gain energy.
Vaporatization gains energy because it is the opposite of evaporation and evaporation loses energy. Here are some other things that, like vaporation, gain energy: -melting ... ... ... ... wait one minute, let me think again... oh ya now i remember... -nothing else :D
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.
