evaporating - evaporate

An evaporate is when something turns from a liquid into water vapor, like how puddles disappear on a hot day. Evaporation happens quickly outside when it's warm.

Think of evaporation like a magic trick where your drink disappears right before your eyes. When you leave a cup of juice or soda outside on a sunny day, it might seem to just vanish overnight. That's not because someone took it, but because the sun was making the liquid turn into tiny droplets of water that rise up into the air as gas. It's like a natural process where everything gets lifted away without leaving any mess behind.
