As a substance reaches its boiling point it changes from a liquid to a gas. As this happens the bonds that are holding the molecules together break allowing the molecules to wander off on their own as a gas. 6. As a substance reaches its freezing point it turns from a liquid to a solid.
So, as the fast molecules escape, the temperature of remaining water drops. That's why evaporation cools. See Figure 2, top drawing. Water boils when evaporation occurs throughout the pot â not just on the surface â and forms bubbles that are buoyed to the top where they escape.
