When a drop of liquid water falls on a hot stove, it will quickly heat up and evaporate, often causing it to "dance" on the surface due to the Leidenfrost effect. This occurs when the bottom layer of the droplet vaporizes rapidly, creating a cushion of steam that temporarily insulates the remaining water from the hot surface. Depending on the temperature of the stove, the droplet may evaporate almost instantly or take a few moments to disappear completely. If the stove is extremely hot, the water may also splatter, potentially creating a small steam explosion.

Why is gas oozes out of a stove instead of a liquid?

Gas oozes out of a stove because it is in a gaseous state at room temperature and pressure. This allows it to escape easily through openings in the stove. If a liquid was used instead of gas, it would need to be vaporized before it could escape through the stove, making gas a more practical choice for stoves.
