How Dry I Am - Assessment

WHY?

As water evaporates, it changes into a gas and escapes into the atmosphere. The water in the plastic bag has no way to escape into the atmosphere because it is trapped in the plastic bag. As the water is heated in the plastic bag, the water builds up on the sides. This is condensation.
