B) water turns into water vapor when the water molecules get enough energy to move from the liquid phase to the gas phase

Mason Stephenson · Answer 2

B) Water turns into water vapor when the water molecules get enough energy to move from the liquid phase to the gas phase.

Explanation:

Process of elimination!

A) can't be correct because water vapor is a gas and water is the liquid so it just doesn't make sense

C) Water vapor isn't a chemical reaction you can reverse water paper

D) Water most defentiely CAN become water vapor (it's in the name)

Leaving B! Another way to tell is as the water cycle goes on the more crazy the molecules get. With solids they barely move, liquids slightly more movement but still like a shape, and gas is just completely crazy.
