6 Differences Between Evaporation And Condensation
S.NO. | Evaporation | Condensation |
1. | Evaporation is the process by which a liquid turns into a gas, while | condensation is the process by which a gas turns into a liquid. |
2. | Evaporation occurs when a liquid absorbs heat energy and the molecules gain enough energy to break the bonds that hold them together, while
| condensation occurs when a gas releases heat energy and the molecules lose energy and come back together to form a liquid. |
3. | Evaporation is a cooling process, while | condensation is a heating process. |
4. | Evaporation occurs at the surface of a liquid and is faster at higher temperatures and lower humidity, while | condensation occurs when gas comes into contact with a surface that is cooler than the gas. |
5. | Evaporation results in the loss of a liquid, while | condensation results in the gain of a liquid. |
6. | Evaporation is an important part of the water cycle, while | condensation is also an important part of the water cycle and can be seen in the formation of dew or fog. |
