Answer:

evaporates; less

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaporation of liquid refers to its transformation into gaseous state. The liquid evaporates when it is heated. Heat provides kinetic energy to the particles of the liquid. The particles are free to move far from each other due to the increased level of kinetic energy. This makes the particles of a liquid less organized when it is converted into a gaseous form.
