Why might you become chilled as water evaporates from your skin after you swim?

water evaporates causing a cooling effect.When the water evaporates it takes heat with it. Think of it as the water leaving and taking the heat with it..
Normal human body temperature is 98.7 (average) Your body works to heat the water in the wet clothes at the same time the outside air or ambient temperature is working to evaporate that water within the clothing. This causes a chilling or cooling effect. This is the same reason you sweat, the evaporation of the sweat acts as a cooling system.

What happens to tiny particles of water as a puddle evaporates?
The water flashes off to become measurable as Relative Humidity
When water evaporates energy is released?
Yes, when water evaporates, energy is released.
How do you explain how mass and energy are conserved when water evaporates?
mass of liqid water before evaporation=mass of liquid water after evaporates + mass of gaseous water.
Does water in a puddle enter the atmosphere when it evaporates?
Yes, water in a puddle enters the atmosphere when it evaporates. It becomes water vapor which will eventually fall as precipitation somewhere else.
When water evaporates does the water change?
Yes and no. Yes because it does keep its form kind of when it evaporates. All that happenes is that it just turnes into a less dense form. Then no because when it evaporates it is a gas until it changes again.
What happends to water when it evaporates?
Water become gaseous.
What does water vapor become when it evaporates?
when water evaporates it condenses and becomes water vapor:)
What does liquid water become when it evaporates?
steam or water vapour
When water evaporates where do it go?
When water evaporates, it goes up into the sky, and eventually freezes to become what are known as clouds.
When all the water evaporates the dissolved materials become what?
desicated
What does water release when it evaporates from a surface?
This surface become colder.
When water evaporates off of an object?
This object become colder.
When water from the earth's surface moves into the air what does it become?
* It stays water, it leeches through the ground or evaporates always staying as water.
How much water evaporates from a pool in winter?
nearly none but most of the water might freeze.
What happens to temperature when water evaporates off a surface?
This surface become colder.
When the water evaporates what does it become?
Gas. The vapors freely travel through the air and eventually disappear.
When ice melts to become water and the evaporates to become a gas that is called?
Both are changes of phase - melting and evaporation.
