Question

How does the water kept in an
earthen pot become cool
in summer.​

Answer 1

Answer:

This is due to evaporation.

Explanation:

Unlike glass and steel, earthen pots have numerous pores (small holes). As a result the water seeps into the mud.

This mud/earth absorbs the heat from the water.

This is a continuous process due to which water remains cool in an earthen pot.

Answer 2

$\mathfrak{\huge{\red{\underline{\underline{Answer}}}}}$

Water placed in earthen pots is evaporated from minuscule pores it has as it is made of mud particles. This evaporation of water produces a cooling effect. Some of the heat energy that is generated is used in the process of evaporation. Hence, water stored in earthen pots tends to become cooler in summer.
