Which statement best describes the energy changes associated with evaporation and boiling? atoms gain energy during evaporation and boiling. atoms lose energy during evaporation and boiling. atoms gain energy during evaporation but lose energy during boiling. atoms lose energy during evaporation but gain energy during boiling

Explanation:

Both evaporation and boiling are physical phenomena that involve the change of states from liquid to gas. However, these terms are not synonymous, since evaporation is slower and does not require the heating of the entire mass of the liquid.

Evaporation occurs only on the surface of the liquid and is directly proportional to the temperature, and with this increase in temperature increases the kinetic energy of the molecules.

Boiling is the change to the gaseous state that occurs below the surface of the liquid, forming vapor bubbles when the temperature of all the liquid reaches the so-called boiling point at a certain pressure. Then these bubbles float to the surface quickly and turbulently.  

It should be noted that in this process there is also an increase in temperature and therefore gain of kinetic energy in the molecules.

the electric field is a “force field” around a charged object that illustrates the direction the electric force would push an imaginary
