Diffusion occurs throughout the solution and not just at the surface. Just the opposite of this is the activity of enzymes. Dropping colored dye in water will diffuse evenly through the solution.

What happens if you pour liquid nitrogen into a volcano?

Not a lot, most volcanoes have solidified on the surface so there is no open lava at the surface. It would be pouring liquid nitrogen onto rock which would not do much at all. Even if there were some lava on the surface pouring liquid nitrogen onto it would just accelerate the cooling and solidifying into rocks dependent on what type of lava it is.

What is the difference between evaporation and boiling-?

The difference in evaporation and boiling is simple. Just imagine a beaker and being placed on the hot plate. The liquid it beginning to evaporate and the their is a gradient in the water because not all of the water is reaching 100 degrees Celsius at once. Some of it is beginning to evaporate (change in the state from a liquid to a gas) the other is beginning to boil! Remember boiling is a characteristic property and once it is reached the temperature doesn't continue to increase. Hope this helped!Vaporization if the phase change from a liquid to a gas. Evaporation and boiling are both mechanisms for vaporization to occur. Evaporation occurs at the surface of the liquid. It is the primary method by which water moves from bodies of water into the atmosphere. It is a much slower process than boiling. Boiling occurs when a liquid is heated to the boiling point. During boiling, water evaporates throughout the entire liquid very fast, rather than just at the surface.Evaporation happens only at the surface of a liquid and occurs at any temperature (so long as the substance is a liquid at that temperature). However, as most people are aware, liquids evaporates faster at a higher temperature. Boiling, on the other hand, happens throughout the bulk of a liquid, usually starting from some site on the inside of the container and rising in a bubble to the surface. It only happens when the temperature is above the boiling point of that substance.


What happens to a liquid that is not in a container?

If a liquid is not in a container it will evaporate.


What is the vaporization of a liquid?

What liquid is below the surface of the earth?

The liquid below the surface of the earth is mostly molten rock, called magma. It is found in the mantle layer of the earth, between the crust and the core. The outer core of the earth is also a liquid, consisting mainly of molten iron and nickel.

What is vaporization throughout a liquid?

You may be referring to boiling. First a little background.Vaporization is a phase change from the liquid state to the gaseous (or vapor) state. When a liquid vaporizes or evaporates, the more energetic molecules in the liquid leave the surface and enter the vapor phase in the air above the liquid. Because its the more energetic molecules that leave the liquid, and the kinetic energy of a molecules is related to the temperature, vaporization is a cooling process. Another term for this is endothermic, meaning it takes in heat.When a liquid is below its boiling point, not all molecules uniformly have enough energy to enter the vapor state. Some molecules have more energy and go into the vapor, others don't and stay behind in the liquid state. As an average, the liquid exhibits a vapor pressure less than that of the atmosphere. The vapor pressure of a liquid is a function of its temperature.When a liquid reaches its boiling temperature, however, that means the liquid's vapor pressure (as a whole) equals that of the atmosphere. So instead of evaporation just from the surface, now you see bubble of water vapor forming throughout the liquid and rising to the surface.
