Evaporation - the fastest molecules escape
1. When a Liquid is heated, the heat energy goes to the molecules, which makes them move faster.
2. Some molecules move faster than others.
2. Fast-moving molecules at the surface will overcome the forces of attraction from the other molecules and escape. This is Evaporation.

Can you compare evaporation and condensation?
Evaporation is the process in which there is a change of state from liquid to gas. Condensation it is the process in which there is a change of state from gaseous to liquid or solid. Evaporation takes place from surfaces, all the time at all places Condensation can take place on surfaces, or at any place in a gas, though it is often aided by the presence of dust or other small particles. Evaporation absorbs energy. Condensation gives out energy.
What describes the stage that occurs after evaporation in the water cycle A condensation B precipitation C transpiration?
There are four stages in the water cycle. Condensation takes place after evaporation.
Which must be present in the water cycle for evaporation to take place?
For evaporation to take place there must be some form of heat. This is heat from the sun
Is it true that evaporation and condensation take place when water gains heat energy?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.Condensation is an exothermic process.
What of water takes place when the rate of evaporation equals the rate of condensation?
This is called an equilibrium.
How does rain take place?
Relief rainfall takes place when evaporation,transpiration and condensation takes place followed byprecipitation
What takes place when a gas changes into a liquid?
condensation
When a gas changes into a liquid what takes place?
condensation
How condensation evaporation precipitation take place?
The flooding takes place because in some areas there are no gutter lines and there is a lot of blockage
What change in the form of water takes place in the process of evaporation?
In the process evaporation water changes from a liquid to a gas.
The process by which water changes from a solid to a gas?
The process by which water changes from solid to gas is called sublimation Water in solid form is known as ice which on heating turns into water vapour OS steam , it depends at what temprature you are heating.
What is the process called when water vapor gets cold and changes into rain?
Condensation. And before this: water turns into water vapor-evaporation After condensation: clouds holding the water lets go-precipitaion= snow, sleet, hail, and rain. After precipitation: Run-off=water goes back to its original place (or other places).
