The change of state from a liquid to a gas, which occurs at any temperature.
Liquid takes in thermal Gas takes away thermal
energy from the surroundings energy from the surface
Surface warm Surface cool
Evaporation causes cooling
MECHANISM OF EVAPORATION At any given time,

liquid molecules are moving randomly at different speeds.
These liquid molecules
are also absorbing thermal energy from their surroundings.
More energetic Liquid molecules + Thermal energy = liquid molecules MECHANISM OF EVAPORATION More energetic liquid

These more molecules at the surface energetic liquid can overcome the molecules downward force of escape to the attraction of the other atmosphere. liquid molecules. MECHANISM OF EVAPORATION

Less energetic molecules are left behind in the liquid.
Less energetic molecules, Lower molecular speeds,
Lower kinetic energy, Lower temperature.
