6) In latent heat of condensation, a) latent heat is released to the atmosphere b) latent heat is taken by the water molecule to change phase.

Latent heat is the heat energy required to change a substance from one state to another, during condensation the latent heat is energy released when water vapor condenses to form liquid droplets.

For condensation, latent heat effects associated with the phase change are significant, similarly as for boiling, but in reverse. Condensation is considered a warming process when gas molecules condense into liquid drops, latent heat is released into the atmosphere which warms the air surrounding the molecule, this adds instability in the atmosphere warming the air surrounding the molecule.

Considering this information we can conclude that the correct answer is a) latent heat is released to the atmosphere.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
