Answer:

If heat is added to a liquid it will change into a gas (option D)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are different states of aggregation of matter, among which are the solid state, liquid state and gaseous state, to which the plasma state is added, not important in this case.

The transition from one state to another is called a state change.

Bodies change from one state to another due to the effect that temperature and pressure have on it, either by increasing or decreasing these factors.

If heat is applied the particles of the surface and those of the interior may enter the gaseous state. This process is called the boiling point, and the temperature necessary to reach that point is called the “Boiling Temperature”. This temperature is characteristic of each substance.

Finally, if heat is added to a liquid it will change into a gas.
