Which option describes the particles of water as the liquid water actively boils? (1 point) Responses The particles will have the same average kinetic energy and a decrease in temperature during boiling. The particles will have the same average kinetic energy and a decrease in temperature during boiling. The particles will have the same average kinetic energy and the same temperature during boiling. The particles will have the same average kinetic energy and the same temperature during boiling. The particles will lose kinetic energy and increase temperature during boiling. The particles will lose kinetic energy and increase temperature during boiling. The particles will lose kinetic energy and decrease temperature during boiling.
1 answer
The correct option is: "The particles will have the same average kinetic energy and the same temperature during boiling."
During boiling, the temperature of the liquid remains constant at the boiling point, and while some particles may have more kinetic energy than others, the average kinetic energy of the particles stays the same until all the liquid has turned into vapor.
