What is energy absorbed in stored in vaporous molecules called?

Latent heat


Does radiant energy produce heat energy when it strikes matter?

To the extent to which the energy is absorbed, yes. Reflectivity and color determine how much energy is absorbed, but no matter can reflect 100% of the energy striking it. Some will be absorbed by the molecules.


What is it called when absorbed light energy is released by matter?

Example for light energy is absorbed or released, Heat is released and absorbed, electrical energy absorbed or released...


When iodine goes from iodine to iodine gas in energy absorbed or released?

Energy is absorbed because the iodine is going from a liquid to a gas. This means that the iodine molecules are moving faster so they had to have absorbed more energy to do this.


Where do the photons that are absorbed go when they are absorbed by the solution?

Photons absorbed by a solution "disappear" and the energy they brought with them is transferred into the solution. That energy appears in the "activity" of the atoms, molecules and/or ions in the solution. The kinetic energy of these particles will increase because of the added energy.


Energy is primarily when organic molecules are synthesized and when they are broken down?

absorbed,released


Sun's energy is absorbed by what?

the suns energy is absorbed by the leaf to make food. this is called photosynthesis :)


What is a reaction called in which heat energy is absorbed?

when energy is absorbed it is called an endergonic reaction and when energy is released it is called an exergonic reaction


What happens to energy when a liquid turns into gas?

When a substance is changing from liquid to gas, the energy, which is absorbed, causes the atoms (or molecules) to move at a higher rate of speed, so that they are not staying close together, like in the liquid state. So the absorbed energy increases the kinetic energy of the atoms (or molecules).


Describe the role of energy when ice melts and when vapor condences to form liquid water?

When water molecules melt, energy is absorbed. When water molecules evaporate, energy is also absorbed. When water molecules condense energy is released. When water molecules freeze energy is also released.


What are the food molecules absorbed by the body used for?

It is used for providing energy and necessary to stay alive


When absorbed light energy is released by matter it is called what?

Example for light energy is absorbed or released, Heat is released and absorbed, electrical energy absorbed or released...
