Answer:

The heat added represents an energy change.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this process, the heat added is the energy change needed for this phase change from boiling water to steam.

  • The boiling water needs additional heat to cause the phase change.
  • This heat is the energy change.
  • If energy change is added or removed, phase changes will occur for this reaction.
  • Mass is conserved in this change.
  • The action can be reversed.
