During which process of the hydrologic cycle does the sun heat surface water, causing the water to change from its liquid state to its gaseous state? a. condensation b. infiltration c. evaporation d. precipitation

I believe it is evaporation but I could be wrong

Explanation:

Answer : The correct option is, (C) Evaporation.

Explanation :

Condensation : It is defined as the process in which the phase changes from the gaseous state to the liquid state as constant temperature.

Infiltration : It is defined as the process in which the water present on the surface of the ground, enters into the soil.

Evaporation : It is defined as the process in which the phase changes from the liquid state to the gaseous state as constant temperature.

Precipitation : It is defined as the chemical process in which the solid substance is separated out from the liquid material.

According to the question, during the evaporation process of the hydrologic cycle, the sun heat the surface water, causing the water to change from its liquid state to its gaseous state.

Hence, the correct option is, (C) Evaporation.
