Evaporation occurs when molecules at the surface of a liquid overcome the attractive forces of the liquid.This occurs when molecules within the liquid attain a sufficient amount of:
Answer:
1. resonance.
2. kinetic energy.
3. surface tension.
4. potential energy.
Answer: B
Explanation: Evaporation occurs when a molecule attains sufficient speed or kinetic energy to overcome the attractive forces of a liquid. Resonance, surface tension and potential energy all relate to molecules that are not in motion. Thus, answer choice B is the best answer.
