Abstract
After a brief summary of the relevant results of irreversible thermodynamics, the simplest example in which the kinetics of evaporation can be formulated is discussed: namely that of a pure ideal gas in contact with the liquid. This is followed by a treatment of transport along a surface, and the kinetics of gas absorption by a liquid. The article concludes with a discussion of transport from the bulk liquid to the surface.
