Evaporation.
Warm-up
Are these examples of evaporation?
Points to consider:
• Water particles in
vapour have greater
chance to return to
the liquid. evaporation
• more humid the air, Some return
the lower the rate of
evaporation.
Movement of air
If there is a breeze,
the particles that
escape from the surface
of water get blown
away.
fewer particles in the
vapour return to the
liquid.
a breeze increases the
rate of evaporation.

Example 6
A person (mass 60 kg) doing exercise is
covered with sweat.
(a) If 1 litre (1 kg) of sweat
is evaporated in 1
hour...
…how much energy is
required to
evaporate this
amount of water?
Example 6
Energy required to evaporate 1 kg of water
= mlv
= 1 2.26 106
