Difference between Evaporation and boiling
Evaporation |
Boiling |
Evaporation is the process in which liquid is converted into water vapours. |
The process in which liquid is gets converted into gaseous state is called boiling. |
Evaporation leads to cooling of the surface. |
Boiling does not lead to cooling. |
Evaporation takes place throughout the liquid. Takes place over the water surface. |
Boiling Takes place throughout the liquid. |
Evaporation occurs at a fixed temperature for any Liquid. |
Boiling takes place at different temperatures depending upon the liquid. |
When evaporation takes place there is no formation of bubbles. |
Boiling leads to bubble formation in the liquid. |
Evaporation is slow Process. Takes time to convert into vapours. |
Boiling is Fast process than evaporation. But it needs a high energy heating source. |
The temperature of the liquid body After the evaporation is Occurs get Reduced. |
The temperature of the liquid does not reduced in boiling it remains constant. |
Evaporation is the process which continues till the air above liquid surface remains unsaturated. |
Boiling is the process which continues till the internal and external temperature remains equal. |
Evaporation is the process occurs before the liquid reaches to boiling point. |
Boiling occurs after the Evaporation of liquid starts. |
Evaporation needs a heating source, like sunlight or surrounding temperature. |
Boiling need a strong heating source like lamp, stove etc. |
Example for evaporation is – wet clothes get dried after placed under the sunlight. |
Example for boiling – water has the boiling point 100°c . It starts boiling when we place it over the stove. |
