5 Questions
Evaporation only occurs when molecules at the surface of a liquid gain enough energy to enter the gaseous state.
True
Evaporation can only happen at high temperatures.
False
Boiling is a process where molecules only at the liquid's surface gain enough energy to enter the gaseous state.
False
The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which only the surface molecules can change to the gaseous state.
False
When a liquid boils, its temperature increases steadily until all molecules turn into a gas.
False
Learn about evaporation, where molecules at the surface of a liquid gain enough energy to enter the gaseous state, and boiling, the process where the entire liquid turns into a gas by attaining its boiling point temperature.
