The evaporation of water is endothermic. In order for the hydrogen bonds to be broken in water (which is required for water to evaporate), an input of energy is needed. Conversely, the condensation of water vapor is exothermic.

Is a puddle of water evaporating endothermic or exothermic?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.
What is Freezing water exothermic or endothermic?
Freezing is exothermic as a substance loses heat to its surroundings when it freezes.
When solid sodium hydroxide is added to water the solution gets hot is this endothermic or exothermic?
The hotness of water proves heat is absorbed by water so the process is exothermic which releases the heat and is absorbed by water.
What is exothermic process?
Exothermic is the process that exert heat or giving out energy to surrounding. Example of exothermic process such as condensing of steam or burning of fuel.
Is a puddle evaporating an exothermic reaction?
No, evaporation is endothermic as the liquid needs to absorb energy to evaporate
Is a puddle of water evaporating endothermic or exothermic?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.
Evaporating alcohol endothermic or exothermic?
It is an endothermic process.
Is evaporating rubbing alcohol on skin endothermic?
Water evaporation is an endothermic process.
Is sweat endothermic or exothermic?
endothemic because it reduces temperature of skin by evaporating. reducing is the key word
Is evaporating always an exothermic reaction?
it is an endothermic reaction
What is the property of evaporating water?
Evaporation is a physical process.
Is the formation of water endothermic or exothermic?
The process is endothermic because the water is absorbing heat from the kettle. When energy (heat) is released as steam this is exothermic.
How is evaporating water a chemical change?
Evaporation is a physical process.
When wax is evaporating is it in the same process as water?
Wax is not evaporated.
Is ammonium chloride is an exothermic?
an exothermic what? If you dissolve it in water, it's an endothermic process, and will absorb heat.
Why is evaporating from water from your skin a cooling process?
Evaporation is an endothermic process, absorb energy.
Is the reaction of magnesium sulfate and water exothermic or endothermic?
It is not a chemical reaction, it is dissolution; this physical process is exothermic.
