When sufficient quantity of heat has been added to reach the boiling point of a solution, what happens to any additional heat added?

When sufficient quantity of heat has been added to reach the boiling point of a solution, what happens to any additional heat added?

Additional heat raises the temperature of the liquid which in turn increases the rate at which boiling occurs. Additional heat alters the viscosity and the surface tension of the liquid which raises the vapor pressure and increases the boiling point which is why you must continually heat the solution. Additional heat lowers the intermolecular forces of the liquid which in turn increases the volatility of the liquid. Additional heat is used to evaporate the liquid as the process is endothermic and requires continued input of energy. None of the above are correct statements.

Explanation / Answer

answer is D:

bescause the given additional energy( heat) is used to evoporate the liquid , as the process is endothermic and requires continued input of enrgy.
