Questions and Answers

What is the main difference between evaporation and boiling?

  • Evaporation occurs at the surface, while boiling occurs throughout the liquid. (correct)
  • Evaporation causes the liquid to cool down, while boiling causes the liquid to heat up.
  • Evaporation requires less energy than boiling.
  • Evaporation only occurs at high temperatures, while boiling can occur at any temperature.

    • Why does the drop of rubbing alcohol evaporate faster on your hand than on the table?

  • Your hand provides more energy to the alcohol, causing it to evaporate faster. (correct)
  • The table is made of a material that slows down the evaporation process.
  • The table is colder than your hand, causing the alcohol to evaporate more slowly.
  • The table is warmer than your hand, causing the alcohol to evaporate more quickly.

    • At what temperature does evaporation occur?

  • Evaporation only occurs at the boiling point of a liquid.
  • Evaporation occurs at a specific temperature that is unique to each liquid.
  • Evaporation occurs at any temperature, as long as the liquid is in contact with air. (correct)
  • Evaporation only occurs at temperatures above the freezing point of the liquid.
