Water's Heat of Vaporization
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Water's heat of vaporization is the large amount of energy required to convert one gram of liquid water into vapor, because hydrogen bonds must break first.
Show
Sweat evaporating from skin carries away a large amount of body heat with it, cooling the skin in the process.
Watch for
Vaporization removes heat from the surface it leaves, which is why evaporation cools rather than warms.
