Evaporation:

  2. It is because the water molecules absorb the heat of our body and convert it into gas molecules.
  3. The energy is taken away by the molecules when they convert from the liquid into gas, and this causes cooling on the original surface.
  4. It is clear from the preceding explanation that evaporation causes cooling.
