In evaporation:
- all molecules of liquid begin to escape out
- only the molecules at the surface escape out
- the temperature of liquid rises by absorbing heat from surroundings
- the molecules get attracted within the liquid

Answer
only the molecules at the surface escape out
Reason — In evaporation, some molecules near the surface of liquid acquire sufficient kinetic energy by collisions with the other molecules, to reach the surface. These molecules absorb heat from the surroundings to escape out in space.
