How are boiling and evaporating different?

Answer 1

Boiling specifically means that the liquid's partial vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure.

From Wikipedia: "Boiling is the rapid vaporization of a liquid, which occurs when a liquid is heated to its boiling point, the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the pressure exerted on the liquid by the surrounding environmental pressure."
Simple evaporation is a slow process where a liquid turns to cool vapor at temperatures below the boiling point. Boilingis a rapid process where a liquid turns to hot vapor when heated to the boiling point. Boiling involves the formation of bubbles of this hot vapor, which rise to the surface of the liquid, where they break and release the vapor.

Answer 3

Let's use water as an example

Boiling is the point when water is heated to 100 C, and the water as a mass is being affected.

Evaporation only effects the surface of the water, and can ccur without being heated
Boiling is simply evaporation when the vapor pressure exceeds atmospheric;

thus the difference is tempreture.

Answer 4

Boiling of liquid takes place at high temperature (boiling point). The process of evaporation goes on at normal room temperature also. However, increase in temperature is directly related with increase in the rate of evaporation.

Answer 5

Boiling occurs when a liquid reaches its boiling point throughout the entire substance, forming bubbles that rise to the surface. Evaporation, on the other hand, is the process where a liquid turns into a gas at its surface due to heat, but it does not involve the formation of bubbles throughout the entire liquid.

Answer 6

Boiling happens all over the substance, but evaporation happens at the surface.

Answer 7

evaporation occurs at every temperature but boiling occurs at a sharp temperature known as boiling point.

Answer 8

b0oiling raises to the air and disperser and evaporation raises and doesn't disappear
