| Process | Evaporation is a slow and a physical process. | |
| Occurence | Evaporation takes place at all temperatures | |
| Boiling | Evaporation takes place from the surface. | |
| Requirement | Evaporation occurs using the internal energy of the system | |
| Cooling Effect | Evaporation causes cooling |
