Is it true that gas absorbs energy as it changes into a liquid?

When a gas changes to a liquid, it goes through the process of Condensation. This is when the gas cools and loses energy. Then the particles are forced to change state, from a gas to a liquid.

The gas is returning to a lower state of energy and thus releases energy upon conversion. Think of ice: as it turns into water, it is absorbing heat.
If it were to absorb energy, it would most likely turn into plasma.

Is it true or false that a gas absorbs energy as it changes into a liquid?
False. It loses energy.
When a substance loses or absorbs energy its temperature can change true or false?
Very true.
What is true about energy changes?
energy not created and not disappearing
Friction changes the useful work of a machine into mechanical energy true or false?
true
When electrical energy is converted into thermal energy what must be true?
The total amount of thermal energy plus chemical energy changes.
Is it true or false that a gas absorbs energy as it changes into a liquid?
False. It loses energy.
True or false when ice changes to a liquid it asorbs energy?
true, when ice changes to a liquid it asorbs heat energy .
Electron X can change to a higher energy level or a lower energy level Which statement is true of electron X?
Electron X absorbs energy when it changes to a higher energy level. Electron X absorbs energy when it changes to a higher energy level. It takes energy to do that.
When a substance loses or absorbs energy its temperature can change true or false?
Very true.
Which may be true for a substance that absorbs energy?
The energy decreases the molecular motion and the kinetic energy of the substance.
Is it true that the temperature of a substance changes from liquid to gas?
No. the temperature doesn't change, the substance does. yes the temperature of a substance alway changes from liquid to gas because it needs more kinetic energy for a liquid to go to the gas state breaking the intermolecular forces
What is true about energy changes?
energy not created and not disappearing
Which change of phase is endothermic?
is Absorbs If you are asking if a change of state is why a reaction may be endothermic, is not always true. It simply depends on what the change of state is to and what it is from, ex: a change from liquid to solid is usually exothermic because it losses energy as the particles slow down and draw near to eachother... and the opposite occurs from solid to liquid (or liquid to gas).
A generator changes mechanical energy to what?
Electrical Energy
Is it true that an exothermic reaction absorbs heat and is categorized as dissipated energy?
Exothermic reactions release energy. Endothermic reactions absorb energy.
When water changes from a gas to a liquid it condenses?
Yes that is true
What statement about the energy of a phase change is true?
Melting is an endothermic change, because ice absorbs energy from its surroundings as it melts.
