Calculate the radius or the largest drop of water that might evaporate at `0^(@)C` without heat being supplied to it. The surface energy of watee at `0^(@)C` is `117xx10^(-3) J m^(-2)` and the latent heat capacity of water is `606xx10^(3)` clorie par kg at `0^(@)C` One calorie equal 4.2 joules.
[Hint: Equate change in surface energy to the heat required for evaporation of the mass that will disapper.]
