The water molecules gain energy causing them to move rapidly and loss their attraction to each other; forming water vapour.

One reference work states: "The water cycle consists of four distinct stages: storage, evaporation, precipitation and runoff. Water may be stored temporarily in the ground, lakes and rivers and in ice caps and glaciers. It evaporates from the earth's surface, condenses in the clouds, falls back to the earth as precipitation (rain or snow), and eventually either runs into the seas or reevaporates into the atmosphere. Almost all the water on the earth has passed through the water cycle countless times." - Microsoft Encarta Reference Library 2005.

Individual molecules of water have (or obtain by random thermal collisions) sufficient energy to leave the liquid surface and drift away into the air.
