When you heat water, like anything else, its temperature or energy increases. The molecules will have more and more motion, i.e. more and more energy - this is the definition of temperature. At the boiling point of water, which varies depending on pressure, if you continue to heat it the molecules will start to disassociate and they will become gaseous.

What happens to heat when water evaporates?
When water evaporates, heat from the surroundings is absorbed to break the bonds between water molecules, turning liquid water into water vapor. This heat energy is stored in the water vapor as latent heat, increasing its kinetic energy.
What type of heat transfer is needed to change water in to water vapor?
The type of heat transfer needed to change water into water vapor is called conduction. This occurs when the heat from a heat source is directly transferred to the water molecules, causing them to gain enough energy to break the bonds holding them together and transform into water vapor.
What happens when heat is add to steam?
Adding heat to water vapor will just cause the molecules to gain energy and move faster. As long as the amount of energy added is not extraordinary, this is all that will happen. At extremely high temperatures, the water vapor may convert to hydrogen and oxygen gas.
Does water requires the addition of heat to turn into vapor?
Yes, water typically requires the addition of heat to turn into vapor. This process is known as evaporation, where the heat energy breaks the bonds between water molecules, allowing them to escape into the air as water vapor.
What does evaporation of the sea water do to the hurricane?
Evaporation of sea water does absolutely nothing for a hurricane except provide water vapor. When the water vapor turns back to water in the form of rain it gives off heat. Hurricanes are massive heat engines. As long as they have water vapor to turn into heat they can continue blowing along. Without water vapor, the hurricane has no source of heat.
What happens to heat when water evaporates?
When water evaporates, heat from the surroundings is absorbed to break the bonds between water molecules, turning liquid water into water vapor. This heat energy is stored in the water vapor as latent heat, increasing its kinetic energy.
What happens when water vapor loses heat?
When water vapor loses heat, it condenses back into liquid water. This process is known as condensation. It occurs when the temperature of the air is lowered, causing the water vapor to change state from gas to liquid.
What happens to water vapor when heat energy is reduced?
When heat energy is reduced, water vapor will cool down and condense into liquid water. This process is called condensation and occurs as the water vapor loses energy and transitions back into its liquid state.
What happens to heat stored in water vapor when it is cooled to its dew point?
When water vapor is cooled to its dew point, the heat energy is released as latent heat, causing the water vapor to condense into liquid water. This latent heat is the energy required for the phase change from gas to liquid, and is released back into the surrounding environment during condensation.
What happens to water vapor when it cools down?
When water vapor cools down, it undergoes condensation and turns back into liquid water. This process releases heat energy into the surrounding environment.
What happens to the the energy from the sun when it changes liquid water into water vapor?
The energy from the sun causes liquid water to evaporate and change into water vapor. This process requires heat energy to break the bonds between water molecules, allowing them to escape into the air as vapor.
What change of state happens when heat is removed from water and it condenses?
When heat is removed from water, it undergoes a change of state from a gas (water vapor) to a liquid (water). This process is known as condensation.
Why does warm air hold more water vapor then cold air?
Because Water vapor is why the air is warm More specifically the Evaporation/precipitation cycle puts heat into the air via water vapor carrying heat from the surface of the earth into the air If the Surface is hotter then more evaporation happens and in turn more heat gets into the air with the associated humidity
How does ice to water to water vapor?
Heat causes the ice to melt into water and the water evaporates into vapor.
What is the heat energy released when water vapor change to a liquid called?
The heat energy released when water vapor changes to a liquid is called heat of condensation. This process occurs when water vapor loses energy and transforms into liquid water, releasing latent heat in the process.
When you heat water it become what?
vapor
How do you convert into a vapor?
Boil or heat a liquid or ice cube or water and you get a vapor. Heat a medication such as Vicks Vaporub and you get a medicated vapor.
