Use the graph and diagram to answer the question. Which option describes the particles of water as the liquid water actively boils? (1 point) Responses 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 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 decrease temperature during boiling. The particles will lose kinetic energy and decrease temperature during boiling. The particles will have the same average kinetic energy and a decrease in temperature during boiling.

Answer 1

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 even as it transitions from liquid to gas. The heat energy being added is used to overcome intermolecular forces rather than increasing the temperature, meaning the average kinetic energy of the particles remains the same during this phase change.
