Evaporation is a surface phenomenon while boiling is a bulk phenomenon in the sense that it consists of Interior and Surface.
The answer is B simple

the word interior is with specifications, boiling involve the entire bulk

Let’s check each statement carefully:
i. Evaporation occurs at all temperatures while boiling occurs at a fixed temperature for a given pressure.
✅ True – Evaporation can happen at any temperature, but boiling happens at a specific temperature (boiling point) for a given pressure.
ii. Evaporation is a surface phenomenon while boiling is an interior phenomenon.
✅ True – Evaporation happens only at the surface. Boiling occurs throughout the liquid (bubbles form inside).
iii. Evaporation is affected by surface area while boiling is not.
✅ True – A larger surface area increases evaporation. Boiling depends mainly on temperature and pressure, not surface area.
✅ Correct Answer: D (i, ii, iii)

myschool please rectify.
boiling or vaporization is not about interior alone, it about the whole liquid, including surface middle, side or whatever.
