During which specific stage of the water cycle is latent heat absorbed from the surroundings?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Evaporation process

Correct answer: B, evaporation. Evaporation is the change of liquid water into water vapour. For this change, water molecules must gain energy to escape from the liquid surface. They take this energy as latent heat from sunlight and the surrounding air, land, or water. Because heat is absorbed without an immediate rise in temperature, it is called latent, or hidden, heat. Condensation is the reverse process: water vapour loses latent heat and becomes liquid droplets. Precipitation is the fall of condensed water as rain, snow, or hail, while runoff is the movement of water over land. Therefore, only evaporation among the given choices clearly absorbs latent heat. Memory cue: evaporation takes energy in; condensation gives energy out.
