In a rainy season, water gets collected in the empty pots on the roof. But after some days we see that no more water is there. Which process takes place here? Explain. [2 Marks]
Solution : [1 Mark]
Explanation : [1 Mark]
Evaporation takes place in this case.
Evaporation is a type of vaporization of the liquid that takes place from the surface of a liquid into the gaseous phase.
When the collected water is kept undisturbed in the pot, water is heated by sunlight and slowly turns into water vapour, through evaporation. In few days, the water evaporates completely.
∴ We do not see any water there after some days.
