It's called condensation. it's not sweat. There's microscopic liottle drops of moisture in the air that get collected toward cold areas, on a hot day, it has no where to go but toward a cold glass of water.

∙ 13y agoThe glass is not actually "sweating." What you are seeing is condensation of water molecules from the air onto the glass's surface. Because the water in the glass has less energy than the water in the air (it's cooler), energy from the water molecules in the warmer air is given up to warm the cooler water in the glass. This loss of energy results in the air water molecules' inability to break the number of hydrogen bonds between themselves necessary to remain in the gas phase and ultimately the condensation of water onto the outside of the glass surface.

What are some transparent objects?
Some transparent objects are water, air, and clear glass.
Why when placed in a glass tube water touching the glass is pulled slightly upward?
Meniscus. Essentially it is because water adheres to the glass.
What are different ways for water to leave your body?
Waste, skin, breathing, it comes out of every part of the surface of your body.
What make condensation form on a side of a cold glass?
If you have a cold glass and you leave it in the heat or anywhere where heat can get to it than it will form condensation. That is where there are little water bubbles on the outside and inside of the glass.
What are two waste products that sweat glands release?
Products that are released by sweat glands are water, salt, urea, uric acid and ammonia.
Why does a glass of hot water sweat inside?
Condensation of the cool air on the hot glass.
A glass of cold milk sometimes forms a coat of water on the outside of the glass (Often referred to as 'sweat'). How does most of the water get there?
if you have ice in it the ice will melt and get out
How is sweat forming on a glass of ice water similar to cloud formation?
They are both performing Condensation

When water vapor condenses on surfacesit is known as?
Dew, condensation or in some cases: sweat (like when a glass of cold water gets all wet on the outside).
Why a glass filled with a cold beverage seems to sweat?
The phenomena is a good explanation of the condensation processes that is happening in our atmosphere. There are lots of water vapor around us. As this water vapors touch the out side portion of a cold glass, the cold temperature within a cold glass condenses those water vapors, thus, converting it from a gaseous state to a liquid state. Since in its liquid form, it is more denser than gas, the water formed as we termed sweat appears and flow outside a cold glass.
What percentages of sweat is water?
99% of water is in sweat. the other % is nutritions. by:Alayna
What do sweat glands excrete?
Sweat glands excrete sweat ( which is mostly salt and water).
What is the Best breakfast after a workout?
a glass of your own hard earned sweat
What organ produces sweat?
heart This is incorrect. Sweat is produced by sweat glands in the skin.
How does rust get on your jewelry?
Sweat. Sweat and water. When they get on your jewlery, it rusts.
What happens when a cold glass of iced tea sits outside in the sun?
Water will condense from the air onto the glass, so it will develop droplets of water. and the tea will warm up, if left outside for a long enough time. If it is sweat tea, it will draw flies and some kinds of bees.
