compare what happens to latent heat in the atmosphere during evaporation to what occurs during condensation

Well, during evaporation, (latent) heat energy must by supplied by the one or more sources. This includes the atmosphere, the sun, or some other source. This is needed to cause liquid water to become vapor at the same temperature. This is only due to energy needing to overcome the attractive forces between the water molecules. I hope this helps!

An atom that has fewer electrons that protons is called a positive ion.
