Microwave Radiation is Very Effectively absorbed by Water molecules, this results in the increased thermal agitation of the Water molecules that absorb the Mw radiation - as found in Microwave ovens.
Thermodynamics
All objects transfer thermal energy by infra-red radiation. The hotter an object is, the more infra-red radiation it gives off. No particles are involved in radiation, unlike conduction and convection. This means that thermal energy transfer by radiation can even work in space, but conduction and convection cannot. One good example is the sun. Even though it is millions of kilometers away in space, we can still feel its heat. The thermal energy is transferred by electromagnetic waves.
When the temperature of a material increase, thermal energy is added to the material. It also increases the kinetic and potential energy of the particles. When the temperature reach the boiling or melting point, the kinetic energy stays the same, but the thermal energy and the potential energy still keeps adding and increasing. And when ONLY the potential energy increase, the state of the material changes from one to another.

B. Conductors. Conductors are materials that readily transfer thermal energy due to their ability to easily allow the flow of heat through them. Thermals, enzymes, catalysts, and chemical bonds are not typically associated with the transfer of thermal energy.

The transfer of thermal energy using electromagnetic waves occurs when heat is emitted from a warmer object in the form of infrared radiation. This radiation travels through space and is absorbed by a cooler object, causing its temperature to increase.
Electromagnetic waves transfer thermal energy through radiation. These waves include infrared radiation, which is commonly associated with heat transfer.
The transfer of thermal energy by electromagnetic waves is called thermal radiation. It does not require a medium and can travel through vacuum. Objects that are hot emit thermal radiation in the form of infrared waves.
one energy that thermal energy can transfer into is radiation energy. It can transfer into that because of the electromagnetic waves.

solar energy, radiation, radiant energy, electromagnetic energy ( EMR ) and thermal conduction.
Heat conduction: the transfer of thermal energy through direct contact between materials. Heat convection: the transfer of thermal energy through the movement of fluids or gases. Heat radiation: the transfer of thermal energy through electromagnetic waves, such as infrared radiation.
Thermal energy is transferred by electromagnetic waves through a process called radiation. When an object is heated, it emits electromagnetic waves, such as infrared radiation, which carry thermal energy from the hotter object to a cooler one. This transfer of energy occurs without the need for a medium, like air or water, making it an efficient way to transfer heat over long distances.
