You could find the phenomenon of evaporation in space, when comets approach the sun (which most comets never do, but which some do). Technically, it is really sublimation rather than evaporation, since the ice in comets becomes vapor without ever going through a liquid phase. Otherwise it would be unusual to find evaporation in space. There are no liquids to evaporate.

Why is cooling always cause evaporation?

Cooling does not cause evaporation. Warming does. This is because as the air warms up, there's more space for water vapor in it. Water evaporates and turns into water vapor to fill this space.


When the evaporation rate equals the condensation rate the space above the liquid is?

Saturated


Is water on earth ever lost in space to say evaporation?

Water on earth is never lost in space; vapors are condensed and transformed in rains and snow.


When the temperature of the air decreases the rate of evaporation?

Air is already in evaporated state(gas) . however the rate of evaporation decreases in the sense its volume decreases(less space is occupied by the molecules)

When does evaporation takes place?

When the molecules of liquids don't have enough space to escape the heat, the liquid then evaporated in the air.


Do a decrease in humidity affect evaporation?

If its a warm day and you reduce the humidity in the given space evaporation will be easier because the air can now take on more water until it reaches the dew point or saturation for the given temperature and atmospheric pressure.


What is it called when a liquid turns into a gas?

This process is called evaporation. It is caused by putting something in a dull space forcing the liquid to fall as a gas
