Solid
has a definite mass and volume

What is the difference between Evaporation and Boiling?
To summarize, evaporation is slower, occurs only from the surface of the liquid, does not produce bubbles, and leads to cooling.
Boiling is faster, can occur throughout the liquid, produces lots of bubbles, and does not result in cooling.
