Solution

  1. Evaporation is a process in which particles on the surface of any liquid gain energy from the surroundings.
  2. When they will gain enough energy to leave the surface, they will be converted into gas.
  3. Evaporation can occur at any temperature because it occurs at the surface only.
  4. All other particles which are below the surface will be in the same state.
  5. Therefore, the change of state from liquid to gas at any temperature is called evaporation.
