haihtumis
Haihtuminen is the Finnish term for evaporation, the process by which a substance changes from a liquid to a gaseous phase, typically at temperatures below the liquid’s boiling point. It is a surface phenomenon in which molecules at the liquid–air interface acquire enough energy to overcome intermolecular forces and escape as vapor. Evaporation occurs at all temperatures, but its rate increases with higher temperature and slower with factors that reduce the tendency of molecules to leave the surface.
The rate of haihtuminen is influenced by several factors. Temperature and the vapor pressure of the liquid
Haihtuminen is a key element in natural and technological processes. In the environment it drives the water
Thermodynamically, evaporation is related to the liquid’s vapor pressure and the latent heat of vaporization. It
