What is the difference between evaporation and boiling?
Evaporation happens at any temperature whereas boiling occurs only at a single temperature for a single component like water. For example the water at sea surface evaporates everyday. It may happen either at 300C or 350C, whereas water boils only at 1000C when the vapor pressure becomes equal to atmospheric pressure.
