Condensation is exothermic because it is releasing energy to go from a gas to a liquid.

condensation is exothermic as forming hydrogen bonds releases energy. gas --> liquid means hydrogen bonds are formed.

Condensation is exothermic because the substance is going from a less stable to a more stable state as intermolecular forces are formed between molecules. The energy of the system decreases, and energy is released, making the process exothermic.

Condensation is exothermic because heat from the system is released into the surroundings. There is a change of state from a gas phase to a liquid phase.

Condensation is an exothermic phase change as this is when gas is converted into liquid substance. For this to occur, energy must be released into the environment.

Condensation is exothermic because you are going from a gas to a liquid which means that bonds need to be formed which would release energy causing a negative change in enthalpy.

Hi!
Condensation is exothermic. From the gas phase to liquid phase, the molecules are forming bonds, which will release energy.

Condensation is exothermic because the state of the water molecules are losing energy to change from a gas (high energy) to a liquid (lower energy). Hope that helps!

As we covered in the lecture in week 3,
Condensation is a form of exothermic reaction (releases heat).

Condensation is an exothermic process since it results in the formation of new bonds, which release energy as heat.

Hi, condensation is exothermic since it's a gas phase turning into a liquid phase so there's a high energy state of particles becoming a lower energy state. Hope this helps!

Condensation is exothermic (G-->L) as it releases energy.

For condensation the molecules are giving up their heat energy. When molecules give up heat energy, it is called exothermic. Condensation would be exothermic.

Heat is released during condensation so it is exothermic.

Condensation is an exothermic process! Think about the phase change. Going from gas to liquid releases energy.

Hi, condensation is the physical change that changes a substance from gas state to liquid state. During this process, the distance between the molecules decreases so energy is released to make it more stable. Therefore it is an exothermic reaction.

Condensation is an exothermic process because it involves changing from a gas to a liquid, a process that requires the loss of heat.

Condensation is a exothermic process. This is because the gas (water vapor) will release heat energy in order to form Hydrogen bonds. Because these bonds are formed, the water vapor will turn into liquid water.

this would be exothermic since the water goes from gas to liquid state, meaning that energy is lost.

Condensation would be exothermic because energy is being released when bonds are formed as the system becomes more stable in its transition from a gas to a liquid. To elaborate, you don't need more heat for water vapor to become a liquid.

condensation is exothermic because it is releasing heat in the process. This process is going from a gas to a liquid and to do this, it must release heat. I like to think of it as the opposite of vaporization which is from liquid to gas.

Condensation would be considered exothermic since it requires heat energy to be released in order for a gas to be turned into a liquid.

Condensation is exothermic because in order to form hydrogen bonds, it is releasing heat so the vapor turns into liquid and forms bonds. Since it is losing heat, then that means it is an exothermic reaction.

Condensation is exothermic because heat is being taken from the gas molecules/vapor (the RXN loses heat) in order to turn into water and form condensation.

I find it helpful to view state changes in terms of gas being on the top, liquid being in the middle, and solids being at the bottom. To go up it takes energy, so solid --> liquid, liquid --> gas, solid --> gas (melting/fusion, vaporization, and sublimation) are all endothermic processes. On the flip side, going down releases energy, so liquid --> solid, gas --> liquid, and gas --> solid (freezing, condensation, deposition) are all exothermic processes.

Condensation is an exothermic process. Heat is released to create bonds, changing the gas to a liquid.

Hello,

Condensation is an exothermic process! Energy is being released in the process as gas is turned into liquid! If the opposite were to happen, it would be endothermic. I hope this helped!
