Interpretation: It is to be how boiling is a cooling process.
Concept introduction:
The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature when its vapor pressure equals that of the gas above it or the temperature at which a liquid begins to turn into steam or vapor is known as its boiling point.
Answer to Problem 49A
Liquid molecules absorb energy during evaporation and thus, energy leaves during boiling.
Explanation of Solution
Heat is necessary for the transformation of liquid into vapor. When a liquid reaches its critical temperature or boiling point, heat leaves through rapid evaporation, hence, boiling can be thought of as a cooling process. When liquids transform into gases, extra heat is released, which causes boiling. Due to heat loss, this is a cooling process.
