Evaporation is the act of producing water vapor. This can occur at any temperature or pressure. Boiling is the act of raising the temperature of water to the boiling point and maintaining it there. The boiling point of water is dependent upon the atmospheric pressure. Steam Generation is conducted within a closed pressure vessel, and is the act of vaporizing water into steam at a given pressure and temperature.
Examples:
Ice can shrink in size due to the evaporation of individual molecules of water
into the air
water can evaporate from a puddle into the atmosphere
a pot on a stove can boil water for cooking, this also evaporates some water
a steam generator evaporates water into steam for use in a heating system,
the water is then condensed and returned to the generator

How are boiling and evaporating similar?
Boiling is when a liquid starts ti make the change from a liquid to a gas, and evaporation is when a a liquid is somewhat "drying up" and becoming a gas, so they are both a liquid becoming a gas, boiling is almost just a type of evaporation. hope that helps!
How are North America and South America differ?
They have different season,They have different climates. There similar in size.
Is this statement true or false evaporation does not occur during winter?
False. Evaporation occurs year round.
Is kinetic energy similar to radiant energy?
They are different types of energy.
Who died on Degrassi the boiling point?
Nobody died in Degrassi the Boiling Point.
What are the two types of vaporization and how they are similar and how they are different?
its evaporation and boiling.
How evaporation and boiling are similar how are they different?
they are the same cause they are both changeing water or ice to a gas
What process occurs as matter changes state from liquid to a gas?
Boiling, the term for that is boiling point.
How is evaporation different from boiling?
as the evaporation occurs under the atmospheric pressure that is492degr and the boiling point occurs above the atmospheric pressure different liquids have different boiling points just the boiling point of water is 100deg c
How are evaporation and boiling the same and different?
hey both turn water into mist and evaporation doesn't need heat but boiling does
How are boiling and evaporation are the same and different?
hey both turn water into mist and evaporation doesn't need heat but boiling does
How do evaporation and boiling different?
Evaporation is a phenomenon (change of phase) at the surface of a liquid and boiling involve the entire volume of the liquid.
How is boiling evaporation the same?
Evaporation and boiling are similar because both of them allow water to go through a physical change and have the water turn into a gas, by gaining energy.
Is boiling a form of evaporation or is evaporation a form of boiling?
Evaporation is one of the 3 types of boiling.
How is evaporation different from boiling water?
You boil a substance to evaporate the liquid.
How are evaporating and boiling the same?
Evaporation and boiling is similar as they both deal with temperature and pressure. They are both dependent upon the atmospheric pressure.
What is the different between vaporization evaporation and boiling?
The difference between them is that boiling is when you heat a liguid and it turns into a gas, vaporization is when a liquid changes into a gas and evaporation occurs at the surface of a liquid beneath its boiling point.
