Evaporation/Condensation question

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on whether sweat can condense on a water bottle that is sweating due to temperature differences. It confirms that while the condensation on the bottle is primarily from the moisture in the air, some of it could indeed be from evaporated sweat. The pattern of condensation may indicate areas where the bottle was touched. Participants agree that the condensation is mainly water vapor from the environment, but sweat could contribute to it. Overall, the inquiry highlights the relationship between evaporation, condensation, and the presence of sweat.

Hi, I was mowing my lawn today and I was drinking some water out of a water bottle and the bottle was sweating. My question is could my sweat be on the water bottle? I was thinking this was possible because my sweat would evaporate and the the water on the bottle is just condensed water. So I was think my sweat could have condensed onto the bottle after it evaporated. Is this true?

You might be able to determine from the pattern of undisturbed condensation (from the bottle) the specific areas that you touched.
 
thank you guys for the quick response that answered my question.
 

Thread 'Need help understanding particle physics and quantum physics'

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
