Question:
What do you mean by the following terms:
a. Evaporation
b. Sublimation
c. Condensation
Answer:
a. The process of liquid changes into vapors on heating even below its boiling point is known as evaporation.
b. Sublimation: The changing of the solid directly into vapors on heating and vapors into solid on cooling.
c. The process at which vapors changes into liquid is termed as condensation.
