What makes water evaporate?

Answer 1

=== === Water evaporates when the light from the sun hits it, what happens next is the energy from the sun's light causes the molecules of water to push away from one another. Like putting two north ends of a magnet against each other, they push away. The molecules of water that have split from the sun's energy change from a liquid state, to a gaseous state, the gas then rises into the Atmosphere where is cools down, or loses a bit of it's energy and start to become attracted to other airborne H2O molecules.

We cannot always see it, but water is evaporating all the time. A simple experiment is to put a half full bottle of water on a window ledge, and after about an hour or so (some days it will be a lot faster) you will see "fog" appear in the parts of the water bottle that had no water on it. The darker the water the faster it gets evaporated.

Answer 2

Water evaporates when molecules at the surface of the water gain enough kinetic energy to break the hydrogen bonds holding them together and escape into the air as water vapor. This process is faster with higher temperatures, lower humidity, and increased surface area of the water.

Answer 3

Thhe energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.

Answer 4

When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase.

Answer 5

when water heats up it become a gas
