About Evaporating
- Heating a liquid will cause it to evaporate into a gas.
- Evaporation is a reversible process. When a liquid evaporates into a gas you can condense that gas back into a liquid.
- You may have seen these evaporating:
- Water
- Hand Gel
Examples
When water is boiling the liquid evaporates turning into a gas. Eventually all the liquid will be gone and the room will be filled with water vapour. | When you use Hand Gel the liquid quickly evaporates from your hands so you don't need to dry them. |
