Question

question 10 (1 point) which property best describes why sweating cools you down in temperature? a. solvent ability b. adhesion c. high specific heat d. cohesion/surface tension a. water has cohesion b. water expands when frozen c. water forms covalent bonds d. water absorbs heat as it evaporates

Explanation:

Sweating cools the body because water absorbs heat as it evaporates. This is due to water's high heat - of - vaporization property. When sweat (water) on the skin evaporates, it takes heat energy from the body, thus cooling it down.

Answer:

A. Water absorbs heat as it evaporates
