Vaporization

Vaporization

What is it?

Vaporization is when
molecules break free of a solid or liquid state and become gasses. When a solid vaporizes, it is referred to as sublimation.

Give me an example!

Have you ever seen fog rising off a river or stream early in the morning? Fog is an example of water molecules that have undergone vaporization and broken free of their liquid state.
