Evaporation only occurs at the surface of liquid true or false?
False it can happen on any surface with moisture on it. ( think i spelled moisture wrong).
Why is evaporation a surface phenomenon whereas boiling is a bulk phenomenon?
Boiling occurs in bulk and at the boiling point; all of the liquid is hot enough that any additional energy will cause it to become a gas. Evaporation occurs at the surface and at a temperature under the boiling point, because only at the surface can the hotter components of the atomic or (usually) molecular components of the liquid escape from the liquid, when most of the liquid is not hot enough to change into the gas phase.
What is the difference between evaporation and boling?
Evaporation occurs only at the surface. Boiling happens anywhere in the liquid.
Where can you use evaporation?
Evaporation is a type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs only on the surface of a liquid. The other type of vaporization is boiling, which, instead, occurs on the entire mass of the liquid.
Which inner planet has liquid water on its surface?
Only earth.
What is the definition of evoporation?
Evaporation is the type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs only on the surface of a liquid.
The process that occurs when vaporization takes place only on the surface of a liquid?
evaporation
What does evaporation and boiling have in common?
Evaporation is a type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs only on the surface of a liquid. The other type of vaporization is boiling, which, instead, occurs on the entire mass of the liquid.
Evaporation only occurs at the surface of liquid true or false?
False it can happen on any surface with moisture on it. ( think i spelled moisture wrong).
What is evaporation Brefily explain?
Evaporation is a type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs only on the surface of a liquid. The other type of vaporization is boiling, which, instead, occurs on the entire mass of the liquid. Evaporation is also part of the water cycle.

What is the vaporization at the surface of a liquid called?
Evaporation. It only happens at the surface of a liquid.
Why water evaporate faster in a china dish as compared to test tube?
Evaporation is a process that occurs only at the surface of a liquid. If the same volume of liquid is put in a dish rather than a test tube then the liquid will have a bigger surface area allowing more room for evaporation.
Evaporation only occurs at the surface of a liquid?
Yes, the surface contains all the exposed surface area, therefore it is easier for the water to evaporate the air. Keep in mind that water does not have to boil to be evaporated, or we would never have rain.
When a liquid changes into a gas only at the surface of the liquid it is called?
Evaporation.
What is change only on the surface of a liquid?
Evaporation.
Process that turns a liquid to a gas-occurs only at the surface?
Liquids evaporate when a molecule gathers enough kinetic energy to break the liquid bonds and vaporize. The most excited molecules tend to be at the surface, so this is where most evaporation takes place. However if you hat the bottom of a liquid, the bubbles, evaporation , can happen at the contact site.
