Yes, water evaporating requires thermal energy in the form of heat to break the bonds holding the water molecules together. This heat energy is used to overcome the intermolecular forces and allow the water molecules to escape into the air as water vapor.

You think probable to the thermal energy.


What type of energy does water evaporating have?

The energy involved in water evaporating is known as latent heat of vaporization. This energy is required to break the intermolecular bonds between water molecules and convert liquid water into water vapor.


Why does water get cooled in evaporation?

It takes energy to boost a liquid or solid into a gaseous state, so an evaporating substance must aborsb thermal energy.


Is there more water molecules in thermal energy when its hot or cold?

The number of water molecules is not dependent on temperature.


What kind of energy does a hair dryer give out?

A hair dryer gives out thermal energy in the form of heat, which is used to dry and style hair by evaporating water from the hair strands.


When you turn on a clothes dryer energy is released and used Describe the energy transformations that occur in this example.?

In a clothes dryer, electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy to spin the drum and thermal energy to create heat. The thermal energy then transforms to radiant energy to dry the clothes by evaporating the water.


How can you tell a glass of water has thermal energy?

You can tell a glass of water has thermal energy if it feels warm or hot to the touch. Thermal energy is the internal energy of a system due to the kinetic energy of its atoms and molecules, so a warmer temperature indicates higher thermal energy in the water.


How do particles of matter behave when thermal energy is increased?

When thermal energy is increased, the particles of matter move faster and with more kinetic energy. This can lead to the material expanding, changing phase (such as melting or evaporating), or increasing in temperature. Overall, the increase in thermal energy causes the particles to have more vibrational and translational motion.


What energy does a bath of hot water have?

the energy that a bath of hot water is thermal energy because the bath water ransfers to you to make you warmer and the bath water colder.


When a liquid becomes a solid where does the heat energy in the liquid go?

A gas has more heat energy, often called thermal energy, than a liquid, even if both the liquid and gas are at the same temperature. Consider that the gas molecules have more thermal energy than liquid molecules of that same substance. The gas molecules are "free" to move around more because they have more kinetic energy than molecules of the liquid. And kinetic energy is function of thermal energy. If we consider the case of water molecules to illustrate our point, when a pan of water is boiling, the water molecules escaping the pan as a gas have more kinetic energy than the ones making up the liquid water that is still in the pan. Also consider the case of water that is evaporating. Wet your finger and blow on it. The liquid water on your finger cools as the evaporating water molecules take thermal energy from that liquid to make their change of state possible. It takes an increase of thermal (heat) energy to change a liquid into a gas.


What is thermal energy in condensation?

Thermal energy in condensation refers to the heat energy released when water vapor changes into liquid water. As water vapor cools down, it releases thermal energy, resulting in the condensation of water droplets. This process is important in the formation of clouds and precipitation.


Can a container of hot water have the same thermal energy as a container of cold water?

No, it can't have the same thermal energy. The hot water loses energy to the surroundings. Cold is an absence of energy, as energy is removed the water becomes cold.
