Yes, a liquid becomes a gas when its particles have absorbed enough energy to overcome the intermolecular forces holding them together. This allows the particles to escape the surface and become a gas.

Particles need energy to evaporate because evaporation involves overcoming intermolecular forces that hold them together in a liquid state. When a particle gains enough kinetic energy—often from thermal energy—it can break free from these forces and transition into the gaseous phase. This energy allows the particles to escape from the liquid surface, leading to evaporation. Essentially, without sufficient energy, particles remain bound in the liquid.
As a liquid evaporates, particles on the surface gain enough kinetic energy to break free from the intermolecular forces holding them in place. These particles escape into the air as gas, resulting in the liquid gradually losing mass and transitioning into a gaseous state.
Evaporation occurs at the surface of a liquid when individual particles gain enough energy to overcome intermolecular forces and escape into the air. Typically, the particles with higher kinetic energy, often due to temperature variations, are the ones that evaporate. These particles can be influenced by factors such as temperature, surface area, and air movement, which can increase the rate of evaporation.

In evaporation, particles of a liquid gain enough energy to escape into the air as vapor. This process occurs at the surface of the liquid where particles with higher kinetic energy break free and become part of the gas phase.
The particles of the substance gain kinetic energy as they absorb heat energy. Eventually there is enough kinetic energy for the particles to escape the liquid phase, forming the gas phase.

The process is called evaporation. It occurs when particles with sufficient kinetic energy at the surface of a liquid transition into the gas phase.
When water is heated up, it's particles gain energy. When they gain enough energy (when the water is hot enough), they break free of one another and escape as steam(a gas).
During evaporation, particles of a liquid gain enough energy to escape from the surface and become vapor or gas. As the liquid evaporates, the average kinetic energy of the remaining particles decreases, leading to cooling of the liquid and its surroundings.
During evaporation, the particles of a liquid gain enough energy to escape from the surface of the liquid and become vapor. These vapor particles then mix with the air and disperse into the surrounding environment.
When high energy particles leave the surface of a liquid, it causes the liquid to evaporate. Evaporation occurs when molecules at the surface gain enough energy to escape into the air as gas.
