When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.
False it can happen on any surface with moisture on it. ( think i spelled moisture wrong).
Evaporation
When the exposed surface of water is larger the evaporation is faster.
A film of oil at the surface reduce evaporation.

That's because evaporation occurs at the surface.
Evaporation is a process that takes place at the surface of a liquid, therefore the rate of evaporation is directly related to the surface area. Twice as much surface area will give you twice as much evaporation.
Evaporation
If vaporization takes place at the surface of a liquid, it is called evaporation. but when evaporation occurs throughout the substance it is called boiling.
The larger the exposed surface area - the faster evaporation occurs.
why do we say that evaporation is a phenomenon
When a liquid changes to a gas below its surface as well as at the surface, the liquid is at a temperature equal to or greater than its boiling point.
Evaporation only happens at the surface. So a wider container that allows for a greater surface to be in contact with air, the faster the evaporation.
The bigger the surface area of water the more evaporation will take place.
When the exposed surface of water is larger the evaporation is faster.
