Solution

The correct option is A

Evaporation


The phenomenon that involves a change of liquid particles into vapours at any temperature below its boiling point is called evaporation. The particles of the liquid gain energy from the surroundings which increases their kinetic energy and hence, the particles are able to overcome the interparticle force of attraction and change their state to vapour.
