The energy-requiring process by which liquid water becomes water vapor (a gas)is

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Evaporation is the only process mentioned that involves liquid water turning into water vapor through an energy-requiring process. Convection involves the movement of heat through a medium, sublimation is the process by which a solid turns directly into a gas, and condensation is the opposite of evaporation, where water vapor becomes liquid water. Therefore, the best choice is B.
