Heat of vaporization.
It takes a lot of energy for something to change state from liquid to gas. That energy is called the heat (or "enthalpy", sometimes, if you want to be pedantic about it) of vaporization.
The energy used to do this comes from taking out some of the thermal energy of the material, which causes it to cool down.

What happens to the rate of the evaporation of a liquid as the liquid is cooled?
When a liquid is cooled, the rate of evaporation slows down
What are other examples of evaporation to cool things down?
Sweating is a major example of evaporation to cool down. That is why people sweat. When the sweat is evaporated off of the body, it causes the person to cool down some.
Why does water cool down quicker in a tray with a larger surface area?
Evaporation.
Does evaporation speed up or slow down molecules?
Evaporation speeds molecules up, thusly meaning they will "spread out" and convert from a liquid to a gas.
Is evaporation a liquid or a solid?
Evaporation is the change from liquid to gas. So neither it is a change.
What happens to the rate of the evaporation of a liquid as the liquid is cooled?
When a liquid is cooled, the rate of evaporation slows down
What is the difference between evaporation and boling?
Evaporation occurs only at the surface. Boiling happens anywhere in the liquid.

Sweating is a major example of evaporation to cool down. That is why people sweat. When the sweat is evaporated off of the body, it causes the person to cool down some.
If you wanted to slow evaporation from a pot of coffee?
cool it down
Why evaporisation slow in refrigerator?
Evaporation is caused by liquid getting heated up into gas. refrigerators cool the temperature down and increase the time it takes for water to evaporate.
How does evaporation cool down a fire?
evaporation takes away heat from the fire thereby reducing it's energy.
Why does water cool down quicker in a tray with a larger surface area?
Evaporation.
Why evaporation is low in refrigerator?
It is because the air in the refrigerator's temperature is very low ,thus, the evaporation process is slowed down
What is the name of the process of liquid turning into gas?
It is evaporation
Does evaporation rais the tempeature of a liquid?
Evaporation does not raise the temperature of a liquid, evaporation happens because of the increasing temperature of that liquid.
Why does a liquid cool when evaporated?
Evaporation Takes Place Layer By Layer. Then Heat, In The Stages Of Evaporation Just Effects The First Layer Of The Liquid . Heat Makes An Increase Of Enegry Between The Particles. The Particles, With That Energy, Trys To Move And Seperate ThemSelves From The Whole Liquid. The Higher Engery Partides Rise, Leaving The Less Engery Ones Behind, There For Making The Liquid Cool.
Is evaporation a liquid into a gas?
No. Evaporation is when the surface of a liquid turns to into gas.
