Question
How is the heat energy supplied to a liquid used during boiling at a fixed temperature?

Solution
During boiling the heat energy supplied is used in increasing the energy of water molecule and hence the change of phase takes place. On recieving sufficient amount of energy it get converted into the gaseous state.
