Question

Puddles are an example of water evaporating. Describe this process and how it differs from boiling. Explain why we don’t see it happening.

Answer 1

Answer:

Evaporation is where a liquid changes into its gaseous state at all temperatures. Example - Water evaporating from rivers and lakes to form clouds.

      It differs from boiling as boiling occurs only at a fixed temperature and that temperature is different for various liquids. Example - Water boils at 100°C

      We don't see evaporation occur as it happens at all temperature and after it evaporates we cannot see it, however we can feel the humidity and moisture in the air.
