Detailed explanation-1: -Evaporation happens when a liquid substance becomes a gas. When water is heated, it evaporates. The molecules move and vibrate so quickly that they escape into the atmosphere as molecules of water vapor. Evaporation is a very important part of the water cycle.

Detailed explanation-2: -Evaporation occurs when a liquid changes to a gas. During evaporation, molecules gain enough thermal energy to escape from the liquid surface into the air as water vapor. Water-vapor molecules spread out, breaking completely free of each other, and then disperse or spread out among the other gas molecules in the air.

Detailed explanation-3: -As that liquid water is further heated, it evaporates and becomes a gas-water vapor.
