Why does sweat not dry quickly on a humid day?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because air is already full of water vapour

Correct answer: A. Humid air already contains a large amount of water vapour, so it has less capacity to accept additional vapour from sweat. Evaporation therefore becomes slower. Sweat cools the body mainly when it evaporates: liquid sweat changes into vapour and takes heat from the skin. On a humid day, much of the sweat remains liquid on the skin, so less cooling occurs and the body feels sticky or uncomfortable. B is not necessarily true; a humid day may still be sunny. C does not explain the movement of water molecules. D is false because sweat is liquid, not solid. Do not confuse sweating with cooling: sweating produces moisture, but evaporation of that moisture produces most of the cooling effect.
