The heat is stored in water vapour is latent heat.
Latent heat describes energy that is not stored as the internal energy (i.e. temperature) of an object but in its phase state.
For example, in the atmosphere heat that is transported by an air parcel that contains more water vapor than its surroundings. Because energy is needed to turn water into water vapor, water vapor is a way for a body to store energy (along with potential energy, kinetic energy, and sensible heat). If the water vapor is returned to a liquid or solid phase (by condensation or sublimation), the stored energy is released as sensible heat.
What else can I help you with?
Is heat lost during evaporation?
Not exactly.If you are boiling water then the temperature of the water reaches boiling point and stays there despite the fact that you are still applying heat to the pan (thus heat is going somewhere but not into the water!).What is happening is that the heat goes into the water vapour as it boils off / evaporates so it is not lost. This heat is called "latent heat".You get this latent heat back when the water vapour re-condenses into water and this property of being able to move heat in vapour phases is how fridges and heat pumps work and is the source of energy for hurricanes.
What is Vapour absorption machine?
A Vapour Absorption Machine (VAM) is a type of refrigeration system that operates on the principle of heat absorption. It uses a refrigerant-absorbent pair to produce cooling by absorbing heat from a space and releasing it elsewhere. VAMs are commonly used in industrial applications and areas where waste heat or low-grade heat is available.
Why water vapour in air plays an important role in heating and cooling of air?
Water vapor in the air can absorb and release heat energy as it changes states between vapor and liquid. This allows it to contribute to atmospheric processes like the formation of clouds, precipitation, and the transfer of heat during condensation and evaporation. Water vapor also affects the overall humidity level in the air, which can influence how heat is felt by living organisms and the environment.
What device transforms stored chemical energy into heat energy?
A heater or furnace is a device that transforms stored chemical energy, such as natural gas or propane, into heat energy through combustion. This heat energy is then used to warm up a space or heat water for various purposes.
Does the surroundings air becomes warm or cool when vapour phase of water condenses?
Vapor (or vapour) phase means gas and that means we have to teach the molecules to fly. That takes energy, which means heat, which means the surrounding area gets cooler because the water molecules are taking up heat to evaporate. When the water molecules condense, the reverse happens: they give up that extra heat, turn to liquid, and the surroundings become warmer. It doesn't have to be the surrounding air, it might be the surface on which the water condenses.
Does heat cause water vapour?
YES
Which processes of the water cycle show heat being added and which ones show heat beign removed?
How the water cycle and heat are related: Adding or subtracting heat makes the water cycle work. If heat is added to ice, it melts. If heat is added to water, it evaporates. Evaporation turns liquid water into a gas called water vapour. As water goes through its cycle, it can be a solid (ice), a liquid (water), or a gas (water vapour). Ice can change to become water or water vapour. Water can change to become ice or water vapour. Water vapour can change to become ice or water. If heat is taken away from water vapour, it condenses. Condensation turns water vapour into a liquid. If heat is taken away from liquid water, it freezes to become ice. The water cycle involves the sun heating the Earth's surface water and resulting in the surface water evaporating. The water vapour rises into the Earth's atmosphere. The water cools and condenses into liquid droplets. The droplets grow until they are heavy and fall to the earth as precipitation (which can be rain, freezing rain or snow).
Why does condensation warm on a glass of icetea?
Condensation comes from water vapour in the atmosphere turning into liquid water. It took heat for the original water to turn into vapour, and that heat is still in the vapour. It is called latent heat. When the vapour condenses, that latent heat is given back and warms the glass.
How latent heat is an important source of atmospheric energy?
In the atmosphere latent heat is a property of water vapour. When water vapour condenses it releases latent heat, and latent heat must be supplied to evaporate liquid water. This heat affects the behaviour of the weather. Similar effects occur in the change from liquid water to ice and vice versa.
What form in the sky when water vapour condensed into water droplet's?
When water vapour condenses into water droplets during rain it absorbs heat thus making the environment cool. Why so? - Quora When water vapour condenses into water droplets during rain it absorbs heat thus making the environment cool. Why so? Spandan Mallick, Save Water... save life!
When you heat water it does what into water vapour?
When you heat water, it evaporates into water vapor, which is a gas form of water. This process occurs when the water reaches its boiling point and changes from a liquid to a gas.
How are weather systems dependent on water?
Because water vapour contains the latent heat of evaporation which is released back into the air when water condenses. It is this heat that drives the storms.
Is heat lost during evaporation?
Not exactly.If you are boiling water then the temperature of the water reaches boiling point and stays there despite the fact that you are still applying heat to the pan (thus heat is going somewhere but not into the water!).What is happening is that the heat goes into the water vapour as it boils off / evaporates so it is not lost.

When water gains heat and boils the water evaporates into hot water vapour?
Water can exist in three states: Solid, known as ice Liquid, known as water, and Gas, known as steam or water vapour. By the way, what we see as steam is in fact tiny droplets of water. Water vapour is transparent and colourless.
Is water heated from water vapour?
Water is typically heated from a liquid state, not from water vapor. Water vapor forms when liquid water is heated to its boiling point and evaporates into the air. To heat water using water vapor, one would need to first condense the vapor back into liquid water before further heating it.
What happens to water vapors?
Water vapour evaporates due to heat and goes into the clouds. Then when the clouds cool the water vapour condenses and falls as rain <== I think :S
How does kinetic energy relate to the heating of water from a solid to a gas?
The motion of the atoms/molecules means they have kinetic energy. When you heat something, that is how the heat is stored. If the motion gets too big, the atoms/molecules no longer stick together and you get a liquid, ultimately a vapour or gas.
