Why does alcohol feel cold when it touches the skin?!


Question:

Why does alcohol feel cold when it touches the skin?


Answers:

Because you forgot to light it first. Seriously, when alcohol evaporates, it uses heat energy it gets from your skin. Heat energy travels from hot to cold, leaving a heat deficit (cold) on your skin.
