Molecules speed up when they are turned from liquid into vapor. This is because they have more freedom to move around due to gaseous properties. Gases conform to the volume of the container, so they have more room to spread out, compared to liquids that do not have the ability to change volume

Water particles escape from the liquid through the process of evaporation. This happens when the surface of the water is heated, changing liquid into gas (water vapor).

What term best describes the process by which particles escape from the surface of a nonboiling liquid and enter the gas state?

Evaporation (more for talking about water) or vaporization (as a general term) refers to the process in which a liquid changes into a gas. In evaporation, the liquid turns into a gas at the surface. In boiling, vaporization occurs throughout the liquid.


What is the process by which particles escape from the surface of a liquid and enter the gas state called?

This process is called evaporation.


Is vaporization that occurs when particles on the surface of a liquid escape the liquid even when the liquid is below its boiling point?

No; this process is called evaporation.


What is vaporization that occurs on the surface of a liquid?

That would be evaporation; the particles inside the liquid escape from the surface and into the atmosphere/air.


What does a liquid become when its particles have absorbed enough energy to escape the surface?

A gas


Can particles of a solid solute can escape into the solvent only at the surface of the solute?

Yes


Particles escape from the surface of a nonboiling liquid and enter the gas state?

States of matter are determined by the amount of Kinetic Energy they have. When a gas becomes a liquid, it loses energy, and the particles slow down enough to affect each other. This is why liquids have a volume.


Does a liquid become a gas when its particles have absorbed enough energy to escape the surface?

yes


The formation of a gas resulting from the escape of high-energy particles from the surface of a liquid is known as?

Evaporation


In liquid some of the particles have enough kinetic energy to escape from the surface.what is the process called?

The answer is conduction


Does warm water promote evaporation?

Yes. Evaporation is the escape of high energy particles from the surface of water. Hotter water means more high energy particles (particles= atoms/molecules) That would be promoting evaporation.


What effect will the addition of a solute to the solvent have on the ability of the solvent molecules to escape from the surface of the solution?

by adding solvent, the ability of solvent molecules to escape(i.e its vapour pressure) will decrease.because the solute particles provide hinderance
