Question: Angie wrote in her science notebook, "Evaporation only happens when water is heated to high temperatures." Explain why you agree or disagree.
Reference answer: Disagree. Evaporation can occur at any temperature.

Student answer: I disagree with you Angie. Yes that could happen but it is not always like that. Evaporation also could happen at any surface temperature.

Student answer: I disagree because evaporation happens everywhere just slower in colder places.

Student answer: No because water does not have to heated to a high temperature to evaporate, it would still evaporate if it was cold outside.

Student answer: I agree because the only way water evaporates.

Student answer: I do not agree. It does not matter if the water is heated or not because the sun will shine and it will still evaporate.

Student answer: I disagree because it would only evaporate faster it can be in a room and evaporate but it would take longer.

Student answer: I agree because I remember when the class put cups by the sun and it evaporated faster than all of the other cups we had around the room.

Student answer: I agree because water does heated by the sun that evaporates so yes I agree.

Student answer: I disagree because when we did our experiment the water in the jug evaporated, but not as fast.

Student answer: I disagree because it does not only happen when water is heated.

Student answer: I disagree because if it is hot out it will evaporate. But it still will evaporate if it is cool out. It just evaporates slower.

Student answer: No, I do not agree, because water can evaporate when it is cold, it just goes slower.

Student answer: I agree. Because cold water can it just takes longer.

Student answer: I disagree Evaporation happens when it is cold and hot because of the air.

Student answer: I agree.

Student answer: I disagree because the water cycle never stops, even in cold places.

Student answer: I disagree because evaporation happen when it is cold too.

Student answer: I disagree with Angie because evaporation happens with cold water but it evaporates slower.

Student answer: I disagree because evaporation happens in cool areas, just slower.

Student answer: I disagree because evaporation can happen. When it is cold, too. Once, I left a cup of water out on a cold night, and the next morning it was gone.

Student answer: I disagree, evaporation happens everywhere, even on cold days. It just takes longer when it is cool out.

Student answer: I disagree because you can have a cold class of water sitting outside on a hot day and the water would evaporate.

Student answer: I disagree because we tried evaporation with slightly cold water and it worked.

Student answer: I disagree because when water is heated to a high temperature it does not evaporate quickly.

Student answer: I disagree because it does evaporate in high temperatures but it just takes a little longer in cold air.

Student answer: I disagree because the water only evaporation works on cold areas.

Student answer: I disagree with Angie because evaporation can happen in the rain too.

Student answer: I agree because when you take a warm shower it is all steamy and after that it evaporates on the glass.

Student answer: I agree because it is true water does evaporate if you will put it on heated high.

Student answer: I disagree because, evaporation has happened in my cold water before.

Student answer: I disagree because if you put a cup of water and put it in a fridge it will still evaporate.

Student answer: Agree.

Student answer: I agree because water evaporates because it is too hot.

Student answer: I agree because it says on our chart more water evaporates when heated.

Student answer: I disagree because last year we put room temperature water in a cup and we put the cups outside when it was cold the water evaporated.

Student answer: I disagree because in my class, evaporation can happen if cold too.

Student answer: I agree. Because water evaporates it warms up. The water goes in the air and stays there until it hits something cool and solid.

Student answer: I disagree because water can evaporate in the cold too, but when it is not it just evaporates faster.

Student answer: If evaporation when it hot and cold mostly when it hot.

Student answer: Because it can happen to anyone.

Student answer: Because heat absorbs the water.

Student answer: Because it has to evaporate into the clouds and when the clouds get too much water, it rains, and the word for that is condensation.

Student answer: I agree with both because evaporation only happens when water is hot or cold.

Student answer: I disagree because evaporation means it went up in the air or we all could die.

Student answer: I disagree with Angie because it can still be cold.

Student answer: I disagree because water does not only evaporate when it is at a high temperature it only evaporates quicker.

Student answer: Agree because when condensation happens the water warms up and it evaporation happens.

Student answer: I disagree because evaporation can happen when it is cold or hot outside it just evaporates faster when it is hot and slower in the cold.

Student answer: I disagree because water can evaporate any time. Just when it is hot it evaporates quicker than when its cold.

Student answer: Yes I agree because when water is hot it fogs up.

Student answer: Water evaporation is also predicted by the volume mass.

Student answer: I disagree because the surface area effects the evaporation. Also it just takes more time when the water is cold.

Student answer: I disagree because it can also evaporate in air movement or when it is exposed to more air.

Student answer: Disagree because there are more ways to make things evaporate, including, putting it by morning air.

Student answer: I agree because anything with water on it in the heat will evaporate.

Student answer: I disagree because if it rains the next day is gone.

Student answer: I disagree because water can evaporate when it is breezy too!

Student answer: I disagree because water can evaporate at any temperature.

Student answer: I disagree. Water can evaporate at any temperature. Make the water make it evaporate faster.

Student answer: I disagree because the water after it rains evaporates and it is not hot outside.

Student answer: I disagree because evaporation is also involved with surface tension.

Student answer: Agree because heat can help the time of evaporation.

Student answer: I disagree because water does not always evaporate in hot water.

Student answer: That is not true if you leave water out on a air conditioner for a month it will evaporate no heat needed.

Student answer: I agree because if the temperature is higher the water will evaporate more.

Student answer: I disagree. Because any water left out long enough will evaporate.

Student answer: I disagree because it also depends on surface area and light. Something with light might evaporate more slowly than something with a lot of heat, but it will still evaporate.

Student answer: I disagree. Evaporation can happen if the water is cold, it just takes longer.

Student answer: Disagree. That is true, but there are better ways to say like, the water starts to steam at 212 and the molecules in the water start to jump around then and contract to the cold air because they are so hot that the molecules jump out and turn cold and get smaller and smaller.

Student answer: I agree because the higher the temperature, the more evaporation. But evaporation does happen with cold water to.

Student answer: Because on the floor it was not piled on top of each other. So there was more room to evaporate, so in the cup it was all confined so it had less room to evaporate.

Student answer: I disagree because if you put a cup of water at a high elevation it is still going to evaporate.

Student answer: I agree because hot air raises water molecules.

Student answer: I disagree. The water in a hot area evaporates faster but cold water still evaporates just not as quickly.

Student answer: I disagree because sometimes if you leave water spilled it would eventually evaporate.

Student answer: Well it mostly happen when it is hot but it does not always, so I disagree!

Student answer: I disagree that evaporation only happens when it is heated it happens all the time heated or not.

Student answer: I agree because in our class we tried it and the cup outside did not evaporate that much because it was cold and the cup on the inside evaporated a lot and it was hot.

Student answer: It happens at any temperature but it is faster at high temperatures.

Student answer: Agree because it has to be hot.

Student answer: No, because if you take a clear cap and fill it with water put a cap on it and put it in a sunny spot and let it sit for long that is a way to.

Student answer: I disagree because evaporation happens if there is any temperature water, but it will evaporate faster with warm air.

Student answer: I agree because water only evaporates when heat is near by.

Student answer: I agree because steam is hot water flying around and taking the water out the cup.

Student answer: I disagree because evaporation happens when water is cold.

Student answer: I disagree because I heard evaporation is always happening and water is not always hot.

Student answer: Yes I do agree because the sun shows how hot it can be with evaporation.

Student answer: That is not true because the oceans can be cold but they still evaporate. Evaporation happens every second of every minute of everyday of every year!

Student answer: Agree the sun is hot and the ground water evaporated.

Student answer: I agree because water vapor is what gets evaporated. Water vapor is often times heat. If water is extremely cold it freezes.

Student answer: I disagree because water can evaporate higher than 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Student answer: I disagree when water spills or is in a cup it evaporates.

Student answer: I disagree if I spill water on my clothes it was probably cold water and it evaporates.

Student answer: I disagree because hot water evaporates faster than cold but they both do evaporate.

Student answer: I agree because you need hot air to evaporate something.

Student answer: I disagree because any temperature water can evaporate.

Student answer: That's not true because my group put ours in the freezer and it evaporated a little bit.

Student answer: I disagree because it can happen on any kinds of water.

Student answer: I disagree because when water is cold water is froze it gets smaller and evaporation.

Student answer: Yes because water is cold then heat hits it then it turns to water vapor. Then goes up to the air.
