What do you think happens to the energy from the sun when it changes liquid water into water vapor?

The energy from the sun is in the form of electromagnetic radiation (light and non-visible waves). This light heats water both directly and indirectly (by heating the air or vessel in contact with the water). The electromagnetic energy of the sun is transformed into thermal energy, which in this case is random molecular motion of the water molecules.
