Evaporation is a spontaneous phenomenon. The molecules in the liquid possess kinetic energy. All the molecules donot possess the same kinetic energy. The molecules with higher kinetic energy are on the surface of liquids. They can readily overcome the intermolecular attractions and escape into the atmosphere. This phenomenon is known as evaporation. As the molecules with higher kinetic energy keep on escaping the whole kinetic energy of the liquid is lowered. Since energy is directly proportional to temperature. Thus evaporation causes cooling effect.

3 examples of evaporation?
Evaporation refers to the process of becoming vapor. Evaporation occurs when the sun heats up the earth surface. Evaporation also occurs when water is heated in a cooking vessel.
What conditions will increase the rate of evaporation?
Heat speeds up the rate of evaporation.
Why does salt slow evaporation?
The evaporation of water is slow when water is dissolved in salt. This is because of the salt molecules, the salt molecules is the reason for the slow evaporation.
What have scientist already discovered about heat and evaporation?
that the more heat u have the quicker the evaporation
Are polar climates characterized by high or low rates of evaporation?
low rates of evaporation.
Are necessary for evaporation to occur?
Three main factors are necessary for evaporation to occur: heat energy, a source of water, and an open space for the water molecules to escape into the air. Heat energy provides the necessary kinetic energy for water molecules to break free from the liquid. Without these factors, evaporation cannot take place.
Does evaporation of water happen at the surface?
Evaporation occur at the surface of water.
How does evaporation occur in a fridge?
It can't.
Does evaporation occur in the fridge?
yes, it does
When does most evaporation occur?
after it rains
Does evaporation occur in the freezer?
no it doesnt
How are evaporation and condensation connected to the water cycle in nature?
Condensation occur after evaporation.
Does evaporation need hot or cold water?
Evaporation occur at any temperature but a high temperature favors evaporation.
Does condensation precipitation and evaporation occur in the stratosphere?
No
Can evaporation occur in all temperature?
yes.
Does evaporation occur at the surface of the liquid?
Yes.
Where can evaporation occur?
ocean rivers lakes
