4. • Water in a bowl placed over stove disappears
after a while
• Wet clothes hung in open sun tend to dry
quickly
• During summer, lakes and other water bodies
get dry
• Hot tea gradually cools down after a while
• Ice cubes turn into water if left outside
General
Observations

5. Theoretically;
“A type of phase transition in which
molecules in a liquid state spontaneously
become gaseous”
Practically;
“Evaporation is a process of vaporizing
large quantities of volatile liquid to get a
concentrated product”
Definition

6. Mechanism
When heat applied in solution the motion of
molecules increase and molecules present in the
surface overcome the surface tension of the
liquid and it evaporates because surface
molecules have less cohesive force than others.

7. Difference between
Evaporation and Vaporization
Evaporation Vaporization
Process by which liquid changes to its
vapors at a temperature below its Boiling
Point
Process by which liquid changes to
vapors at it Boiling Point
Takes place at all temperature Takes place at only fixed temperature i.e.
boiling point
A slow and silent process A fast and violent process
Evaporation takes place only at
surface of liquid
Takes place over the entire mass of the
liquid

Electronic
Balance
Stopwatch
Experiment
1. Take a China Dish
2. Using pipette measure 10 ml of acetone and pour it into the china dish
3. Record the weight using an electronic balance
4. Start the Stopwatch
5. After thirty minutes check the weight again
6. Record the observations and compare them
Acetone
Procedure
Apparatus Chemicals

9. Observations
A decrease in the volume of Acetone is observed
Results
The decrease in the volume of acetone suggests that its molecules by
acquiring heat energy from the atmosphere should have evaporated
leaving us with less volume of liquid than before

Factors Affecting the
rate of Evaporation

11. To concentrate a solution
For Dehydration of various chemical
products
For Purification of minerals
To purify Drinking water
Vital for Water cycle
Purpose of Evaporation

12. An evaporator is a device used to turn the liquid
form of a chemical substance such as water into
its gaseous-form/vapor.
