Solution

Blackboard dries up after wiping it. This occurs due to the process of evaporation.

When the blackboard is wiped, the surface of the board will become wet. After sometime, the wet particles on the surface of the board get converted into water vapour, leaving the blackboard dried. This process of conversion of water from its liquid form (state) into vapour or gaseous form (state) is known as evaporation.
