Question

What happens when a liquid evaporates? How is this diffrent from vaporization?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Vaporization (vaporisation) can be described as a phase transition where a substance changes its phase from liquid to gas. The main difference between evaporation and vaporization is that Evaporation refers to a specific type of vaporization which occurs at temperatures below the boiling point of a liquid. Vaporization includes both evaporation and boiling (Under some definitions, vaporization is taken to be any transition to gaseous phase. Here, sublimation, i.e. phase transition from solid to gas is also taken to be a type of vaporization). Boiling refers to vaporization that takes place when the liquid reaches its boiling point.

Answer 2

Evaporation is the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapor. Evaporation is the primary pathway that water moves from the liquid state back into the water cycle as atmospheric water vapor
