The speed of both melting and evaporation depends upon the substance in question (you are probably thinking about water) and the temperature at which these phase changes are taking place. My own observation is that melting is usually faster than evaporation.

How do the 3 states change from one to another?

These phenomenons are called melting, boiling, vaporization, sublimation, deposition, evaporation.


What determines the rate of evaporation?

One factor that affects the rate of evaporation is temperature. Warmer weather means a faster rate of evaporation. The density of the air or humidity in the surrounding air is also a factor. If the air is already humid, evaporation will take longer.


Give two differences between evaporation and boiling?

Evaporation takes place at all temperatures but boiling at one particular temperature When saturated vapour pressure becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure boiling takes place but evaporation is not so


What are the changes?

Sublimation, boiling, condensation, melting and freezing. One might include evaporation, though that does not happen at a particular temperature.

Why do candles stored at room temp burn fastar than frozen candles?

A candle burns by melting the wax. If the wax of one candle starts out colder than the wax of another, then the wax of the colder candle takes longer to get to it's melting point than the other.

What are the 2 kinds of vaporization?

The vaporization that takes place below the surface of liquid is called boiling. The other one that takes place at the surface of a liquid is called evaporation


Which one takes longer to burn rubber or a candle?

a candle takes longer to burn but it smells nicer, especially if it is a scented candle


Is evaporation speed a physical property of a liquid?

no. the physical properties of an object is texture, boiling point, appearance, melting point, volume, lenght, mass, width. there is nine, i forgot the last one.
