When water condenses into a liquid does it transfer heat to the surroundings?

Yes.


Does the difference in the temperature at the start between the liquid and its surrounding temperature affect the rate of cooling?

Yes, the difference in temperature between the liquid and its surroundings affects the rate of cooling. A larger temperature difference typically results in a faster rate of heat transfer, as described by Newton's Law of Cooling. The greater the thermal gradient, the more efficiently heat is exchanged, leading to quicker cooling of the liquid. Conversely, a smaller temperature difference will slow the cooling process.


Why does hot liquid eventually go cold in a flask?

Hot liquid eventually cools down in a flask due to heat transfer to the surrounding environment. The flask acts as an insulator, slowing down the cooling process, but it cannot prevent heat loss entirely. As the hot liquid loses heat to the cooler surroundings, its temperature gradually decreases until it reaches equilibrium with the room temperature.


What is constant for a liquid that flows between containers?

The constant for a liquid that flows between containers is its mass, assuming no liquid is added or removed during the transfer. Additionally, the total volume of the liquid remains constant, as long as it is transferred without spillage. However, the pressure and temperature may vary depending on the height difference and environmental conditions.


Is there a decrease temperature when liquid change to solid?

Yes, when a liquid changes to a solid, it typically releases heat to the surroundings, a process known as exothermic freezing. This release of heat can cause a decrease in temperature in the immediate environment. However, the temperature of the substance itself remains constant during the phase change until the entire liquid has solidified.

Yes.


What is the transfer of heat within a liquid?

when the temperature of the liquid is the same throughout.


What is heat transfer that does not cause a temperature change?

Heat transfer that does not cause a temperature change is called latent heat transfer. This occurs when heat is absorbed or released during a change in state (solid to liquid, liquid to gas) without changing the temperature of the substance.

Which changes occur during evaporation?

During evaporation, liquid water gains enough energy to break free from the surface of the liquid and turn into water vapor. This process involves the transfer of heat energy from the surroundings to the liquid. As a result, the liquid slowly decreases in volume and the temperature of the remaining liquid may decrease due to the loss of heat energy.


Which form of energy causes an ice cube to melt?

whatever's around it, assuming it's in surroundings warmer than 0 Celsius. Everything has heat energy, unless it's at 0 degree kelvin (-273 Celsius), so the warmer surroundings transfer some of this warmth to the colder ice

Why vacuum flask keep cold liquids cool better than hot liquids warm?

It is due to heat transfer by radiation. You must first understand all objects emit some radiation, even room temperature items, but hotter items release greater radiation. With a hot liquid, the vacuum flask is releasing heat via radiation (radiant heat) outwards into the surroundings, the surroundings mostly absorb this radiant heat, therefore the radiant heat is constantly lost to the surroundings. However, with a cold liquid the radiant heat is transferred from the surroundings to the vacuum flask, where the vacuum flask is a relatively small "target" for the radiant heat to strike. Therefore the cold liquid only receives a small amount of radiant heat from the surroundings and thus changes temperature more slowly. Think of it this way: The surroundings is a very very large "target" for the heat released from the thermos to strike, while the thermos is a relatively tiny target for the heat from the surroundings to strike, thus it is easier for the thermos to lose heat than it is to absorb heat from the surroundings.


What is liquid boil?

The temperature at which the pressure of the evaporating liquid equals the atmospheric pressure of the surroundings. For pure water at sea level on earth, this is 100 degrees celsius.


How is evaporation used for energy transfer?

In order to evaporate, energy has to be added to the system, so there will be energy transfer from the surroundings into the material being evaporated, with the effect of cooling the surroundings.
