Question

Choose the incorrect statement related to the process of evaporation.

• A. Evaporation occurs at any temperature.
• B. Evaporation takes place within the liquid.
• C. Temperature may change during evaporation.
• D. No bubbles are formed in liquid during evaporation.

Answer 1

The correct option is B Evaporation takes place within the liquid.

Evaporation occurs when a water particle gains enough kinetic energy to break free of the interparticle bonds holding it to the other particles around it.
It is a surface phenomenon and occurs at any temperature as long as the substance is liquid at that temperature.
