Evaporation, the process by which an element or compound transitions from its liquid state to its gaseous state below the temperature at which it boils; in particular, the process by which liquid water enters the atmosphere as water vapor.
The liquid water on the clothes turns into a gas (sometimes called a vapor). This is called evaporation. When the water evaporates, it takes some of the heat energy away from the clothes.
