Well the definition is the point (temperature) at which water or any other substance is able to evaporate. It depends what substance it is, but for water, it is around the boiling point because when water boils, it also evaporates.
Answer:
Evaporation and boiling are similar as far as the observed results but are different as far as the conditions. Bailing occurs when the vapour pressure of the liquid reached the local atmospheric pressure. In the case of water this would be 100oC at one atmosphere pressure.
Evaporation occurs whenever the relative amount of material in the surrounding air has a lower vapour pressure than the partial pressure of the material in the air. As an example using water again, a puddle of water will still dry up when the air is almost zero as long as the air has a relative humidity of less than 100%
As a consequence the re is bolling point, but no standard evaporation point.

That's 212F

How hot does water have to be in order to evaporate?
depends on air pressure, if you remove air from a container with water in it it can boil at room temp boiling point is the temperature at which water boils and i believe it is also the evaporating point so 100f*
What is oxygen's evaporation point?
It depends on what is evaporating, the substance in question.
As evaporating water enters into the atmosphere what happens?
Its molecules become heated.
The evaporating of water in the leaves?
When water is released from leaves and evaporates it is called transpiration.
Is evaporating alcohol a chemical property?
no,it is not a chemical property as no new product is formed during evaporation..
Is there a chemical that can stop water from evaporating?
Dissolving any salt into water will raise the boiling point.
What is the evaporating point of matter?
It is the temperature at which matter evaporates, or becomes a gas. For example, 212 degrees Fahrenheit (100 degrees Celsius) is the boiling/evaporating point of pure water.
The conversion of water from liquid to gas is called?
It is called as evaporating of water. In a special case, when all water molecules in the given sample are capable of evaporating, that temperature is called the boiling point of water according to the particular pressure.
What causes steam in the air to form?
water evaporating when water heats it gets to its highest boiling point which is a 100 degrees, then slowly starts rising in the air which is called evaporating, this is when steam is formed.
How can you get dissolved salt back?
evaporating the water, the salt has a much later boiling point than the water and will be left behind
How can you use distillation to separate two liquids?
you need to find out the evaporating point for each of your two liquids. for example if you had a mixture of ink and water, the evaporating point for water is 100 degrees and the evaporating point for the ink is 150 degrees (it isn't really, I'm just giving you an example). You then heat the mixture to 100 degrees, because when it is heated to that, the water will evaporate up the pipe and into the other pot. This will happen because the evaporating point of water is 100 degrees. The ink will still be in the starting pot because its boiling point is 150 degrees, remember? so it wouldn't have evaporated yet. turn off the heat when you think they've separated completely. you can do this by judging the amount of water in the other pot if you don't know how much water was mixed in with the ink :)
Is water always evaporating or sometimes evaporating?
Water in an open system is allways evaporated.
What are synonyms of boiling point?
evaporating
What do you call evaporating water?
You can call evaporating water by a number of names, but the most common are water vapor and steam.
How can you get salt out of seawater?
By evaporating the sea water. What remains is salt.
Why is the dew point different on different days?
Because the water isn't evaporating as much so it doesn't build up in the clouds
How do you make evaporation?
heat whatever you are evaporating to a temperature above its boiling point. for water you must heat it to 100 degrees C
