When water at 0.c freezes is heat lost or gained?

As heat is a form of energy, it isn't lost or gained, it's just converted into another form of energy.


Does water lose absorb heat energy when it condenses?

The change of state of water from liquid to vapor, or the reverse from vapor to liquid, involves a fixed amount of thermal energy per unit mass, this is called the specific latent heat. To evaporate liquid water to vapor, heat must be supplied, whilst in condensing vapor to liquid, heat is released. Similar rules apply to water when it changes from liquid to ice, or ice to liquid. You can look up the amount of the latent heat in physical tables.


Is heat lost during evaporation?

Not exactly.If you are boiling water then the temperature of the water reaches boiling point and stays there despite the fact that you are still applying heat to the pan (thus heat is going somewhere but not into the water!).What is happening is that the heat goes into the water vapour as it boils off / evaporates so it is not lost. This heat is called "latent heat".You get this latent heat back when the water vapour re-condenses into water and this property of being able to move heat in vapour phases is how fridges and heat pumps work and is the source of energy for hurricanes.


Can you harness heat energy?

Yes, but only partially. Part of the energy converted to heat is lost, forevermore.Yes, but only partially. Part of the energy converted to heat is lost, forevermore.Yes, but only partially.

What will happen if hot water is cooled?

well whoever asked this is an idiot. obviously it's gonna get cool. wow. the heat from the hot water will be lost to its surrounding.

What time of day is it best to water potted annuals?

The best time of day to water outside plants including potted annuals is in morning, before the heat of the day sets in. This reduces the amount of water lost through evaporation, and also provides water for the plants to help them get through the heat of the day.
