Can wind increase the rate of evaporation?
No only the speed of light can
Explain why vapor pressure increases as temperature increases?
Vapor pressure increases as temperatures increase because water will evaporate in hot weather. This evaporation rises increasing the vapor pressure. This is why many areas have high humidity in the summer.
What causes the energy to increase in the process of evaporation?
formation of ice water
Give two differences between evaporation and boiling?
Evaporation takes place at all temperatures but boiling at one particular temperature When saturated vapour pressure becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure boiling takes place but evaporation is not so
How does increase in temperature surface area wind speed affect evaporation?
These are all variables used to calculate evaporation rate: The larger the surface area the higher the evaporation (rate) The higher the wind speed the higher the evaporation (rate) The higher the temperature the higher the evaporation (rate) The higher the relative humidity the lower the evaporation (rate)
Does water evaporate faster at different temperatures?
Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation.
What type of energy causes the evaporation of water from lakes oceans and rivers?
The kinetic energy of the molecules is the source; the evaporation increase of course at high temperatures.
Why does evaporation increase the desintiy of ocean water?
After evaporation the concentration of salts increase.
Can Greenhouse gases change Earth's average surface temperature?
Yes. They can and they do. Any increase in the level of carbon dioxide or methane in the atmosphere will result in an increase in average global temperatures. This typically results in evaporation of additional water vapour, creating a slight amplifier effect, to further increase surface temperatures.
Does evaporation of salt water cause it to increase or decrease density?
The density increase after evaporation.
Why does evaporation increase the density o ocean water?
The concentration of solutes increase after evaporation.
What happens to water on the ground to cause evaporation to occur?
An temerature increase also increase the evaporation.
What happens to the speed of evaporation when the temperature of water is higher?
The speed of evaporation increase when the temperatre increase.
Do evaporation of salt water cause density to increase or decrease?
The density of water increase after evaporation.
Do evaporation of salt water cause density increase or decrease?
During evaporation the density increase.
How does the temperature affect the circulation of the ocean?
Higher temperatures in the polar regions can increase sea levels by melting more ice. In the ocean, increased temperatures result in greater evaporation and can therefore increase precipitation over both the ocean and the land.
How are the evaporation and condensation of water important to regional temperatures on earth?
Evaporation of water decrease the temperature.
