(a)
Interpretation:
The reason for using ethyl chloride (a spray that evaporates quickly) during a game to numb a sports injury should be explained.
Concept Introduction: Evaporation is the process of converting water (mostly) in liquid state to the gaseous state. Due to change in state of water from liquid to gas its temperature increases and energy is required for such change in state, Thus the water molecules undergoing evaporation, decreases the temperature of the surface by absorbing the heat energy from it.
(b)
Interpretation:
The reason for the faster evaporation of water in a flat dish than in the narrow vase should be determined.
