How is internal energy affected when water is boiled?

AI Thread Summary
When water is boiled, its internal energy increases as it transitions from cold to hot, directly correlating with the rise in temperature. This increase in internal energy is associated with the kinetic energy of water molecules, which move more rapidly at higher temperatures. As the temperature rises, the properties of water change, affecting its molecular bonds and interactions. The boiling process continues until the maximum temperature is reached, at which point the water transitions to steam. Understanding these changes is crucial for grasping the thermodynamic principles involved in boiling water.

Well , internal energy of the water increases - as internal energy of a body is directly linked to the temperature of the said body .

Hope this helps.

Dear friends! What physically is happening when 1.Internal energy is increasing 2.After internal energy has increased?
?
Does anything happen to bonds?
At different levels of temperature properties must be changing until maximum possible temperature.

Thread 'Is 'Velocity of Transport' a Recognized Term in English Mechanics Literature?'

Here are two fragments from Banach's monograph in Mechanics I have never seen the term <<velocity of transport>> in English texts. Actually I have never seen this term being named somehow in English. This term has a name in Russian books. I looked through the original Banach's text in Polish and there is a Polish name for this term. It is a little bit surprising that the Polish name differs from the Russian one and also differs from this English translation. My question is: Is there...

Thread 'Is calling fictitious forces "not real" just about terminology?'

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...
