When water evaporates the air near the water's surface becomes cooler. Explain why this happened.?

Because of the latent heat of evaporation for water. Water at 100 degrees C requires approx 2260 kilojoules per kilogram to convert to water vapour. This amount of heat must be taken from the air near the water's surface and hence the cooling effect.

yes it is it is hard to explain though
What does water need to begin evaporating?
What needs a heat source to begin evaporating. Normally the sun is the heat source that evaporates water on the earths surface.
How do the heart and blood vessels maintain a stable body temperature in hot and cold weather?
During warmer weather, the blood vessels at the surface of the skin dilate. At the same time, our skin produces sweat, which evaporates - taking the excess heat into the atmosphere.
Why do earthworms bring piles of soil to the surface?
The piles of soil are the worm casts, (faeces) which the worm excretes after feeding. These may be pushed to the surface as the worm clears out his tunnel or deposited on the surface as the earthworm feeds above ground. As the worm will not venture far from its burrow it might explain as why they are situated around the opening of the hole.
What happens to the cartilage in rheumatoid arthritis?
It is destroyed by the inflammation instigated by the immune system which mistakes it for an invader.
In organic chemistry explain why water evaporates faster at a wider and flat surface?
A greater surface area from which evaporation can occur.
When water evaporates the air near the water's surface becomes cooler why?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.
When water evaporates the air near the surface becames cooler explain why this happens?
Evaporation is an endothermic process (absorption of heat).
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.
What does water release when it evaporates from a surface?
This surface become colder.
What does water remove when it evaporates from a surface?
Heat
The sun's heat energy causes surface water on the earth to change into water vapor.?
Evaporates, returning the atmosphere until it becomes saturated, at which point it will return to the ground as rain.
What happens to temperature when water evaporates off a surface?
This surface become colder.
What is the meaning of the source of most water that evaporates from earth surface?
Water evaporates mostly from water bodies.
In domestic pitcher why water get cool?
water in pitcher becomes cool because pitcher has small pores on its surface and the water evaporates from pores by using heat of water. in this way evaporation takes the heat and water in the pitcher becomes cool
Is the sun a cause of the clouds?
Indirectly, yes. The sun heats the surface of the Earth, including bodies of water. Water evaporates and air near the surface becomes warmer. The warm air rises, cooling as it does so. The moisture then condenses to form clouds.
Why water evaporates on roads?
Water is evaporated from any surface.
