Change of State: Boiling, Evaporation

Matter changes from one state to another when heat is added or removed. Boiling and evaporation are two processes in which a liquid turns into a gas. Boiling occurs at a specific temperature, known as the boiling point, while evaporation happens at any temperature from the surface of a...

Imagine heating a pot of water. As the water heats up, it starts bubbling and steaming. This process is called Boiling.

In this process, the particles gain energy and start moving faster. When their energy becomes strong enough to overcome the attractive forces holding them together, they break free from the liquid, forming water vapor bu...
