Yes, the surface contains all the exposed surface area, therefore it is easier for the water to evaporate the air. Keep in mind that water does not have to boil to be evaporated, or we would never have rain.

What is evaporation Brefily explain?
Evaporation is a type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs only on the surface of a liquid. The other type of vaporization is boiling, which, instead, occurs on the entire mass of the liquid. Evaporation is also part of the water cycle.
Why does water spilled on a floor evaporate more rapidly than the same amount of water in glass?
Two things, depth and surface area. A puddle is generally shallow and large, meaning there is more area for the sun to heat, which more water can evaporate at a faster rate. A glass of water is small and deep, so the process is slower. Now if you took the same volume of water that was in the glass and poured it onto the floor, the water would evaporate faster.
What happens to water when it condenses?
Water can't condense. Condensation is about something turning from a gas to a liquid. Once it has become a liquid it can't be come liquid-er.
Does Evaporation only occurs over bodies of water?
No, it does not. It can happen almost anywhere. This is why after it rains, the water 'disappears' after awhile. Hope this helps!
Is air temperature or water temperature more important to evaporation?
Air Temperature, because the surface of the water is the only thing that needs to be heated so the warmer the air temperature, the faster the air can heat the surface of the water the faster evaporation will be able to occur,
What is the definition of evoporation?
Evaporation is the type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs only on the surface of a liquid.
What does evaporation and boiling have in common?
Evaporation is a type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs only on the surface of a liquid. The other type of vaporization is boiling, which, instead, occurs on the entire mass of the liquid.
The process that occurs when vaporization takes place only on the surface of a liquid?
evaporation

Evaporation only occurs at the surface of liquid true or false?
False it can happen on any surface with moisture on it. ( think i spelled moisture wrong).
What is the vaporization at the surface of a liquid called?
Evaporation. It only happens at the surface of a liquid.
What is change only on the surface of a liquid?
Evaporation.
Why water evaporate faster in a china dish as compared to test tube?
Evaporation is a process that occurs only at the surface of a liquid. If the same volume of liquid is put in a dish rather than a test tube then the liquid will have a bigger surface area allowing more room for evaporation.
When a liquid changes into a gas only at the surface of the liquid it is called?
Evaporation.
Does evaporation only occur at the surface of a liquid?
False
What is it called when particles only leave the surface of a liquid?
This phenomenon is called evaporation.
What is the change of state from a liquid to a gas that only happens at the surface of a liquid?
evaporation
