* Left: The girl in
the yellow t-shirt seems to thinks about something: Why is the scale
not longer balanced? The pan with the water is up now.
What
has happened to the water inside the pan?
It can only have disappeared
into the air and become invisible. The same happens when your bathing suit
dries after swimming or when a piece of
jellyfish dries up. The water evaporated:
It left into the air.
* Middle: Clouds
above the cooling tower of a power plant. A lot of water evaporates very
quickly inside the tower, leaves it and can be seen again as white clouds.
The same happens in a cooking pot.
* Right: Give some
drops of Cola into a Liquemin bottle, close it
by a stopper which is punctured by a straw. Heat the Cola above a candle
light or above a micro burner: The water of the Cola is
boiling. At the air you can see "clouds" (water vapour).
What
happens, if you turn the hot bottle upwards down and dip it into cold water?
