What about entropy? The reason you need to power AC for example is that if you didn't you could reduce entropy and generate power for free, and basically reverse time.
- freeone3000 1y agoThe amount of entropy in a closed system is not allowed to decrease, but it is allowed to be constant. The amount of energy released by the phase shift is equal to the amount of energy absorbed by the object as heat.
- simiones 1y agoSure, but then the temperature of the object has to increase. And as its temperature increases, it has to stop condensing water - at the very least, once it reaches ~100C, it will instantly boil off any extra water that it condenses.
