What is Evaporation?

Evaporation is the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapour. Evaporation is the primary pathway that water moves from the liquid state back into the water cycle as atmospheric water vapour.

Evaporation is used to separate a soluble solid from a liquid.

For example, copper sulphate is soluble in water – its crystals dissolve in water to form a copper sulphate solution. So in order to get back copper sulphate crystals from its solution, we use evaporation.
