When water molecules at the liquid surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation.

evaporation of the water from wet object
Is the evaporation of water a potential sign of a chemical change?
No, evaporation causes a change in the state of matter (liquid to solid) which is a physical change
How does evaporation work in the water cycle?
when liquid evaporate, it turns into a gas. The evaporation process causes cooling on the surface of where the liqiud originated

Evaporation
Evaporation rises or falls?
Evaporation causes water levels to fall as water turns to steam and evaporates into the air.
