88.why does evaporation of water from a surface cause cooling of the surface? evaporation causes the solute molecules left behind to absorb heat. evaporation causes the expansion of water, which helps to extract heat from the surface od and organims  evaporation increases the surface tension of liquid water and causes the absorption of heat evaporation causes water to become a better solvent causing polar molecules and ionic compounds to dissolve easily evaporation leaves behind cooler water and prevents overheating
