What is the effect of rapid evaporation on the temperature of water?
To determine the effect of rapid evaporation on the temperature of water.
Answer to Problem 18A
The temperature of water decreases as an effect of rapid cooling.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Evaporation is the process in which the liquid turns in to vapor .The energy of the molecules in the vapor is more than that in liquid.
During evaporation, the molecules of the liquid absorb heat from water and are converted in to vapor form. In rapid evaporation more heat is absorbed from water as more molecules leaves from water. As an effect of that water gets cooler.
Conclusion:
On rapid evaporation, the temperature of water is decreased.
