How does the rate at which a container of water cools depends upon the surface area of the water exposed to the open air?
The rate at which a container of water cools depends on the surface area of the water exposed to the open air because the more water is exposed, the faster its molecules will cool.
How long does it take for a 1 pint of water to evaporate?
4 main factors affect evaporation surface area of the container,temperature of liquid, wind speed above the water and humidity of air above the water.
How hot does 300 ml of water get after being on a hotplate for 30 sec?
To answer this question we would need to know the BTUs of the hot plate, the area of the hotplate's surface, the interconnecting area of the hotplates surface and the water container. The Heat capacity of water we can get from a reference book.
How fast does water evaporate in a container?
It affects the rate of evaporation because of the container blocking the direct sunlight toward the water inside the container. The container will probably heat up and get warm first then the water will start to heat up and start to evaporate when it gets hot enough but very slowly due to the indirect sunlight.
Why is it that when water is frozen it takes more space in a container than when it is water the volume increasing?
Because the when water freezes the atoms contract closely together. When the atoms are heated they are again contracted and take up surface area. The size is the same through the whole process but the amount of surface area changes.
How does the size of a container affect the rate at which water evaporates?
the bigger the surface area the faster the water will evaporate
Will the surface area of a container affect the cooling rate of water?
Yes. Other things being equal, the cooling rate should be more or less proportional to the surface area.
How does having the container open affect the surface area?
Therefore you would have to calculate the are inside the container and add it onto the total.

How does surface area affect the evaporation rate of water?
The bigger the surface area of water the more evaporation will take place.

How does surface area affect the rate of evaporation?
The bigger the surface area of water the more evaporation will take place.
What are two factors that affect how fast water will evaporate?
Temperature and surface area
What is the area of 5 gallons of water?
Surface area? That will vary considerably. The smallest surface area will be if the water is suspended weightless, in the shape of a sphere. It could be in a pan 1/16 of an inch deep. Specify the shape you are interested in.

Does hot water cool down faster in a container with a larger mouth area?
I presume you mean surface area. Other things being equal, a larger exposed surface will result in faster cooling. However, the overall shape, size and material of the container will also have an effect.
Dpse the shap of the container affect how much water is lost?
I think you are talking about evaporation.yes shape effects a lot if container has a narrow surface, evaporation is slow and vice versa, to understand this let us take an example.take a glass full of water and put this water in a flat dish. now refill the glass and put both containers in air. What do you think which will evaporate soon? of course from the dish because of more surface area.
