This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Water is air soluable.
It's just like how salt will disappear in water without needing to get hot enough to melt.
Though both of them still need the thermal energy to do the state change, but they just borrow it from their neighbours.
Anon forgot that temperature in a substance is not uniform. This normally doesn't matter, but if a part becomes hotter than the boiling point it will leave before it has a chance to go back to average temperature. So yes, the water "went to 212" before evaporating.
