Answer:
The correct answer is "strong intermolecular forces".
Explanation:
During the evaporation phase, external energy is applied to a substance that results in the separation of their molecules. The evaporation rate is closely related to the intermolecular forces within the substance. A liquid that evaporates at a slow rate exhibits strong intermolecular forces. This happens because the energy applied to the liquid would need more time to separate the molecules of a substance that are strongly attached.
