For water it is 100 degrees celsius, however it is different for other liquids ------------------------- Generally, boiling point is the temperature at which the liquid's vapour pressure is equal to the external atmospheric pressure.

What is liquid to gas evaporation called?

1. When the phenomenon occur at a temperature under the boiling point, at the surface of a liquid, the term is evaporation.2. When the phenomenon occur at the boiling point, in all the volume of the liquid, the term is boiling.


How does vaporization relate to evaporation and boiling.?

Vaporization occur at the boiling point and from the total volume of the liquid.Evaporation occur at any temperature but only from the surface of the liquid.


What is different evaporation and vaporization?

Evaporation occur at the surface of a liquid and at any temperature under the boiling point.Vaporization occur only at the boiling point and in the entire volume of the liquid.


Where gas change occur at the?

The gas is transformed in a liquid under the boiling point.


Why is boiling dependent on pressure?

Boiling is dependent on pressure because the pressure affects the boiling point of a substance. When the pressure is higher, the boiling point of a substance is also higher, and when the pressure is lower, the boiling point is lower. This is because pressure affects the vapor pressure of the substance, which needs to equal the atmospheric pressure for boiling to occur.


Does evaporation or boiling occur more quickly?

Boiling occurs more quickly than evaporation. Boiling is the rapid vaporization of a liquid when it is heated to its boiling point, whereas evaporation is the slower process of a liquid turning into a gas at temperatures below its boiling point.


Is it true that particles can only evaporate from a liquid at temperatures above liquids boiling point?

It is not true; evaporation occur at the surface of a liquid and the temperature is under the boiling point.


What is the temperature at which gas will liquefy at standard pressure?

The boiling point. The process is condensation, but condensation and boiling occur at the same temperature since the boiling point represents the temperature at which gas and liquid are in equilibrium with each other.


When water boils it evaporates?

Evaporation occur at any temperature, boiling only at the boiling point - 100 oC at standard pressure.


Can change of state occur below the boiling point of a liquid?

Below boiling point of water, water gets changed from liquid form into vapour form. This is called as vaporization. Thus change of state is possible even below boiling point. An liquid can be changed into solid at its freezing point. This is also a change of state.


What are the freezing melting boiling and evaporation points of water?

The melting/freezing point of water is oC.The boiling point of water is 100 oC at standard pressure.Evaporation occur at any temperature.


How is boiling different from boiling point?

Boiling is the phase where the boiling occurs. The point at which the boiling occurs is the boiling point.
