Not exactly.
If you are boiling water then the temperature of the water reaches boiling point and stays there despite the fact that you are still applying heat to the pan (thus heat is going somewhere but not into the water!).
What is happening is that the heat goes into the water vapour as it boils off / evaporates so it is not lost. This heat is called "latent heat".
You get this latent heat back when the water vapour re-condenses into water and this property of being able to move heat in vapour phases is how fridges and heat pumps work and is the source of energy for hurricanes.

Is energy lost during evaporation?
no
Is heat absorbed or released during evaporation?
Heat is absorbed by the molecules leaving the place the evaporation is occuring. That is why, after putting aftershave or cologne, you feel cold. The alcohol in the aftershave/cologne has evaporated and taken the heat from your face with it.
During which process does water gain the most heat energy?
Evaporation because it requires 2,260 Joules to gain heat energy. Condensation, freezing, and melting require less Joules than evaporation.
How is heat energy lost through the body?
Heat energy in the human body is transferred to the ambient environment. To accelerate this transfer evaporation of moisture, sweat, assists. Generally the heat transfer is by radiation, thermal diffusion and conduction.
How does heat energy affect evaporation?
Heat energy causes evaporation. It evaproates water, or you could say it turns liquid into gas.
Is energy lost during evaporation?
no
What is lost during evaporation?
The liquid is evaporated.
How does evaporation of moisture from your skin help you comfortable on a hot day?
For the evaporation,heat is absorbed from body.So heat is lost from body.So we feel comfortable.
How evaporation exhibit the cooling effect?
Evaporation needs heat energy. During the process of evaporation heat is absorbed by the other body thereby cooling it
Is heat energy being added or removed during the process of evaporation?
In condensation heat is removed In evaporation heat is added
What is lost during the process of evaporation?
i think impurities is the answer
During exercise which avenue of heat loss does the body rely upon most?
Evaporation
Most evaporation occurs during what hours?
The most evaporation occurs at the highest heat and lowest pressure.
Short Answer how does the water kept in an earthen pot matka become cool during summer?
Evaporative cooling.During the process of evaporation ,air takes in heat, thus cooling down the surrounding areas.In other words, particles of liquid absorb energy from the surroundings to regain the heat lost during evaporation,thereby cooling nearby objects.Same is the case with an earthen pot.
Is heat released to the environment or taken up from the environment during evaporation?
Heat comes from one source, the sun.
Is heat absorbed or released during evaporation?
Heat is absorbed by the molecules leaving the place the evaporation is occuring. That is why, after putting aftershave or cologne, you feel cold. The alcohol in the aftershave/cologne has evaporated and taken the heat from your face with it.
Is energy gained or lost during evaporation?
When a substance evaporates, it gains energy.
