Question:

Describe the process of evaporation (physical equilibrium)

Author: Sammy Universe



Answer:

Endothermic bec particles have to overcome intermolecular forces higher kinetic energy molecules will overcome the forces first = average KE decreases = temp decreases heat is drawn in from surroundings for more molecules to evaporate as molecules of vapor start to come from evaporation some re-enter the liquid (condensation) as the no of molecules in a vapor phase increases = condensation rate increases when cond = evap rate (dynamic equilibrium) = color of vapor is constant
