In which phase do water molecules have the highest kinetic energy?
vapour/steam
How are evaporation and condensation related to saturated air above a flat surface?
When you give energy to water in the form of Heat, all water molecules does not receive equal energy. Some water molecules have more energy than average energy of water molecules in a container, they will escape in to air in the form of Evaporation. When you closed the container with a plate, the evaporated molecules condensed in to water droplets after hitting no of walls in container (no chance for escape) and enter in to container again. After some time some molecules are evaporating and some molecules are condensing, at a certain stage the number of molecules that get evaporated becomes equal to the number of molecules that are condensing. This is the point of Saturation. Air also takes some finite amount of humidity in to it, it depends on ambient air temperature.
Do molecules gain or lose energy from evaporation?
Water molecules gain energy in order to vaporize. That additional energy is needed in order for the water molecules to overcome the attraction that they have for the other water molecules in the liquid that they are part of. In the gas phase, water molecules move independently of each other and are not connected as they are in the liquid state.
In what state does a fixed amount of water have the least amount of kinetic energy?
Water has the least amount of kinetic energy as a solid.
What is cohesive energy?
Adhesion: attractive force between 2 particles in different substances, like water and glass molecules Cohesion: attractive force that holds molecules of a single substance together, like the surface tension on water
In which phase do water molecules have the highest kinetic energy?
vapour/steam
Do water molecules with highest energy evaporate first?
Yes, it is correct.
When do water molecules have the most greatest amount of energy?
Steam at 100C
What happens to the amount of energy in water when it goes from a gas to a liquid?
The water molecules release energy in the form of infrared photons that are absorbed by the surrounding air.
How do evaporate water using a little amount of heat?
Molecules have kinetic energy at any temperature.
Does water provide energy to the body?
No. Water is essential in the process of metabolizing nutrients to produce energy, but water does not provide any energy, itself. Another way of looking at it is this: energy is obtained by breaking down molecules in reactions which release energy. Water molecules cannot release energy when they are broken down--on the contrary, breaking a water molecule consumes a significant amount of energy.
Why does the fifty-two degree small cup full of water have a higher average of kinetic energy then a tub full of fifty-degree celsius water?
The 52o water molecules are moving faster than the 50o water molecules because temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules. The higher the temperature, the higher the kinetic energy, regardless of the amount of the substance.
Do water molecules in the liquid state have more energy than water molecules in the polar state?
Do water molecules in the liquid state have more energy than water molecules in the polar state
Why do water molecules retain heat energy?
Water molecules retain energy due to heat transfer.
How does heating water affect how fast it evaporates?
Evaporation occurs here when the water molecules gain enough energy to leave the liquid and become vapour.Heating the water will increase the amount of energy in the system meaning more molecules will become vapour in a shorter length of time.
How does the water warm up?
Thermal energy applied to the water is transformed into kinetic energy by the water molecules. The water molecules have more energy so the temperature increases.
Which are faster cold water molecules or hot water molecules?
Of course, hot water molecules, having more kinetic energy.
