Questions and Answers

What is the main difference between evaporation and boiling?

  • Evaporation and boiling are similar processes as they both involve molecules turning into gases due to high pressure.
  • Evaporation occurs only at high temperatures, while boiling can occur at any temperature.
  • Evaporation and boiling both involve molecules gaining energy to turn into a gas, but evaporation only occurs in liquids with low viscosity.
  • Evaporation involves molecules gaining enough energy to escape at the surface, while boiling involves molecules throughout the liquid gaining enough energy to turn into gas. (correct)
  • Why does rubbing alcohol evaporate faster on your hand than on a table?

  • Rubbing alcohol evaporates faster on the hand because it has a higher boiling point than on the table.
  • Rubbing alcohol evaporates faster on the hand due to the higher air pressure around it compared to the table.
  • Rubbing alcohol evaporates faster on the hand due to the lower temperature of the hand compared to the table.
  • Rubbing alcohol evaporates faster on the hand because the heat from the hand provides additional energy for evaporation. (correct)
  • What effect does temperature have on the rate of evaporation?

  • Temperature has no effect on the rate of evaporation.
  • Lower temperatures decrease the rate of evaporation.
  • Higher temperatures decrease the rate of evaporation.
  • Higher temperatures increase the rate of evaporation. (correct)
  • Why does a liquid remain at the same temperature during boiling?

    Study Notes

    Evaporation

    • Evaporation occurs when surface molecules gain enough energy to enter the gaseous state
    • Molecules can gain energy by moving fast enough at the surface or through collisions with air particles
    • Evaporation can occur at any temperature, but rate increases with temperature

    Boiling

    • Boiling occurs when molecules throughout the liquid gain enough energy to enter the gaseous state
    • Boiling point is the temperature at which molecules throughout the liquid can change to the gaseous state
    • During boiling, the liquid remains at a constant temperature until all molecules turn into a gas
