Evaporation
Evaporation is a type of
vaporization of a
liquid that occurs from the
surface of a liquid into a gaseous phase that is not saturated with the evaporating substance. The other type of vaporization is
boiling, which is characterized by bubbles of saturated vapor forming in the liquid phase. Steam produced in a boiler is another example of evaporation occurring in a saturated vapor phase. Evaporation that occurs directly from the solid phase below the melting point, as commonly observed with ice at or below freezing or moth crystals (napthalene or
paradichlorobenzene), is called
sublimation.
