Question

When evaporation occurs in a liquid, the molecules that leave are the heaviest. only the darker-colored molecules leave, as they absorb heat the best. each molecule gains thermal energy proportional to the loss of mass. the faster molecules become gas, leaving the slower molecules behind.
