evaporation should be exothermic because high energy molecules escape the liquid and low energy molecules are left behind.as k.e is directly proportional to temperature so we can say that heat is released during this process.....thus,it is exothermic.

That which is being evaporated absorbs energy.

What happens to the energy when water is evaporated?
Evaporation is an exothermic process.
A puddle of water evaporates is an example of exothermic or endothermic?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.
Is it true that evaporation and condensation take place when water gains heat energy?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.Condensation is an exothermic process.
Evaporation of perspiration is an endothermic or exothermic change Why?
Evaporation is an endothermic process because absorb energy.
Is evaporating rubbing alcohol on skin endothermic?
Water evaporation is an endothermic process.
What happens to the energy when water is evaporated?
Evaporation is an exothermic process.
Is a puddle of water evaporating endothermic or exothermic?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.
A puddle of water evaporates is an example of exothermic or endothermic?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.
Is it true that evaporation and condensation take place when water gains heat energy?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.Condensation is an exothermic process.
Is water evaporating an exothermic process?
The evaporation of water is endothermic. In order for the hydrogen bonds to be broken in water (which is required for water to evaporate), an input of energy is needed. Conversely, the condensation of water vapor is exothermic.
What is evaporation an exothermic or endothermic process?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.
Where does water in a lake get most of its energy evaporate?
Evaporation is an exothermic process; the heat is released in the atmosphere.
Which state changes are exothermic and endothermic?
freezing is exothermic, melting is endothermic, evaporation is endothermic, condensation is exothermic.
What are everyday uses of exothermic and endothermic?
EXOTHERMIC: any combustion ENDOTHERMIC: evaporation of liquids
Evaporation of perspiration is an endothermic or exothermic change Why?
Evaporation is an endothermic process because absorb energy.
How does the warming of the ocean affect the water cycle?
it increases the evaporation water.
Is evaporating rubbing alcohol on skin endothermic?
Water evaporation is an endothermic process.
