Answer:

Yes, Adam committed a tort.

Explanation:

In the situation, when Adam kisses the sleeve of Eve's blouse but without her consent, he committed a tort. A tort can be defined as a civil wrong which harm other. Here, Adam's act of kissing the sleeve was an invasion of Eve's privacy. It also caused her emotional distress. Therefore Adam has a legal liability in this case as it is tort.
