Evaporation is when a substance changes from a liquid to a gas, from heat.

Sublimation is when something is cold enough that it turns into a gas, straight from a solid.

like when it's freezing cold outside, and ice is still getting smaller, and there is no puddle around it, it is because it is sublimating.

Sublimation can be used to extract chemicals, that are heat sensitive. Replacing the evaporation method.

These are examples of vaporization; the change into gaseous phase. Boiling and evaporation are the phase change between liquid and gas. Usually boiling is with the addition of heat from an external source while evaporation is within ambient temperature.

Sublimation is the phase change between solid and gas (without going through the liquid phase). Many substances exhibit this phenomena; some (like iodine [I] and carbon dioxide [CO2]) under normal pressure only exhibit this phase transformation while most others (water [H2O]) exhibit sublimation to a lesser extent- they do go through the liquid phase before the gaseous phase as temperature rises.

Evaporation has very little to do with heat, the surrounding air has to be able to take on that extra water for it to evaporate the water you evaporated can be measured as relative humidity, when it condensates depends on RH, temperature and atmospheric pressure

Evaporation is when a liquid becomes a solid, while sublimation is the transfer of a solid to a gas.

they are similar because they both process into gas they are diffrent because they start from a diffrent state to procces and sublimation skips the liquid part and straight into gas

how are evaporation and sublimation the same?

They are both processes that change materials to gas. Evaporation is the process of liquids turning to gas, and sublimation is the process of solids turning directly into gas without first turning into liquid.
