During which stage of the water cycle is latent heat released back into the environment?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Condensation

Correct answer: B. Latent heat is energy absorbed or released during a change of state without an immediate change in temperature. During evaporation, liquid water absorbs energy and stores it as latent heat in water vapour. When vapour cools and changes into liquid droplets during condensation, that stored energy is released to the surrounding air. This release can warm nearby air and helps influence atmospheric circulation and cloud development. A is wrong because evaporation absorbs latent heat rather than releasing it. C is water entering soil and does not involve the relevant phase change. D is water flowing over land and also does not normally release latent heat through a phase change. Memory cue: evaporation takes heat in; condensation gives heat back.
