Why do impurities lower evaporation rate of water?

because it blocks water from evaporating


Does clean water evaporate faster then dirty water?

yes it does. The evaporation rate of water is dependent on the number of molecules that can be presented to the evaporating surface. Anything in the water besides water will decrease this density and slow the process of evaporation.


What happens to the rate of evaporation after raining?

A lot of things get wet, in the rain, and they all are sources of evaporating water, so the rate of evaporation temporarily increases. Eventually things dry out and return to normal.


You have water leaving one fish tank at a rapid pace and the exact same fish tank 5 feet away without the same problem its not leaking why is it doing this?

Maybe your water is evaporating off. If you put glass covers on your tank you will cut down the evaporation rate considerably.


Do food additives effect heart rate?

Yes it does!


How a change in medium water to gelatin would affect the rate of diffusion?

A change in medium water to Gelatin would affect the rate of diffusion dramatically. The change from water to gelatin would slow down the rate of diffusion.


Do additives affect the rate at which water evaporates?

yess it will soke it up (someone else posted this) This answer does not say which additive will slow the evaporation of water, which is what I want to know. I live at 6000' in a semi-arid climate and would like to know if there is an additive that will slow the rate of evaporation of water. Up here evaporation is rapid. Thanks.


When boiling a liquid it will turn into this?

Liquids beacomes vapor when you apply heat to them. However, the point when a certain liquid becomes vapor or rich their point of evaporation still depends on their evaporating rate. Liquids differs in their evaporaing rate, for example oil has different evaporating period to water. We all know that water evaporates at 100 degree celcius but other liquids evaporates at different point, it could be higher or lower than the water.


What would slow down the evaporation rate of a body of water?

A decrease of temperature involve a decrease of the evaporation rate.


Is Water turns into gas when the temperature reaches boiling is true?

Yes, that is partially true. While water is being heated, once its temperature reaches boiling, the water will remain at boiling until all of the water boils away. So, Yes, it does turn to gas, but, No, it doesn't turn to gas all at once. Prior to reaching boiling, the water would have been evaporating at a slower rate. The only thing magical about the boiling point is that is the temperature where the pressure of the evaporating water equals atmospheric pressure.

How does cold water affect how salt dissolves?

Cold water simply slows down the rate at which salt dissolves.
