The thermal energy from heat causes the particles of the liquid to vibrate more (increasing their kinetic energy), then the vibrating particles get enough kinetic energy and are vibrating enough to allow then to break any sort of bonds (most likely ionic) that they have with surrounding particles and, as they become less dense, the liquid evaporate and becomes a gas.
