What is difference between evaporation and flash point?

lifted verbatim from wikipedia, The flash point is the lowest temperature at which vapours of a volatile material will ignite, when given an ignition source. read more

The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of the liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapour. The boiling point of a liquid varies depending upon the surrounding environmental pressure. read more

Boiling Point vs Evaporation . Vaporization from liquids to produce vapor can happen in two ways. One way is to produce vapor at the boiling point. In the other method, which is known as evaporation, the vaporization takes place below the boiling point. read more

The flash point is the lowest temperature at which vapours of a volatile material will ignite, when given an ignition source. The flash point may sometimes be confused with the autoignition temperature, which is the temperature at which the vapor ignites spontaneously without an ignition source. read more

The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of the liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapour. The boiling point of a liquid varies depending upon the surrounding environmental pressure. Boiling water. read more

• Evaporation takes place below the boiling point. • At boiling point, the liquid forms bubbles and there is no bubble formation in evaporation. • At boiling point, the heat is supplied for the molecules and that energy is used to form vapors. read more
