What caues surface water molecules to pull toeher?
It is called Cohesion. The process in which water molecules tend to become attracted to one another.
How does water move in evaporation?
Water molecules at the surface of a body of water gain enough energy from the environment to break free from the liquid phase and become water vapor. These water vapor molecules rise into the atmosphere, contributing to evaporation.
When the air molecules get closer to the Earth's surface they become more tightly?
packed together due to higher pressure, resulting in increased density. This causes the air to become heavier and more compact as it moves closer to the Earth's surface.
What happens to water molecules as water evaporates?
As water evaporates, water molecules at the surface gain enough energy to break free from the liquid phase and enter the gas phase. These molecules become water vapor and move away from the liquid surface, resulting in the overall decrease in the liquid water level.
When water is evaporated from a surface does the surface get cooler or hotter?
When water evaporates from a surface, it absorbs heat from the surface, causing the surface to cool down. This is because energy is required to break the bonds between water molecules and turn them into vapor, drawing heat energy from the surface in the process.
What is happening to the molecules of water as they are heated?
As water is heated, the water molecules gain kinetic energy and they move faster. Eventually, they get enough kinetic energy to move fast enough to escape the liquid phase and become a gas/vapor. This is the boiling point.
Why does water become spherical when thrown in air?
Water tends to form a spherical shape when thrown in the air due to surface tension. Surface tension causes the water molecules to stick together and minimize the surface area, forming a spherical shape, which has the least surface area for a given volume.
How do you explain evaporation using particle theory?
Evaporation occurs when water molecules at the surface of a liquid gain enough kinetic energy to break free from the liquid's surface and become a gas. This process is explained by particle theory as the higher-energy water molecules break away from the liquid and escape into the air, leaving behind lower-energy molecules, which cools the remaining liquid.
Which describes surface tension of water when detergent is added A increases B decreases C becomes zero D shows no change?
B) Decreases. When detergent is added to water, it reduces the surface tension by disrupting the hydrogen bonding between water molecules. This causes the water molecules to spread out more evenly across the surface, lowering the surface tension.
What happens to molecules at 0K?
Molecules at zero will not be gas anymore. Molecules will then become a solid.
What's happening to red giant?
they become a nebula
Where does evaporation take place in a liquid?
Evaporation takes place at the surface of a liquid. (There is an article about evaporation on Wikipedia that may be helpful if you have any more questions about evaporation.) ~KKMG1
