During evaporation, liquid water molecules at the surface gain enough kinetic energy to break free from intermolecular forces and escape into the air as water vapor. This process is driven by heat energy from the surroundings.

What is the particle spacing in evaporation?

The particle spacing in evaporation refers to the distance between individual particles of a liquid as it transitions to a gaseous state. As the liquid evaporates, the spacing between particles increases, leading to the conversion of the liquid into vapor.

How does temperature or heat energy affect particle movement?

Temperature is a measure of particle movement. An increase of temperature, in a sense is an increase of the average movement of the particles within the substance, to include vibrations, spins, and lateral movement.


How is evaporation increased?

Heat, humidity, air movement.


Kinetic energy plus particle attraction?

When a particle has kinetic energy (movement), it can overcome the attractive forces between particles and potentially break free from a material. This is common in processes like evaporation, where particles gain enough kinetic energy to break free from the liquid's surface tension and become a gas.
