One factor that affects the rate of evaporation is temperature. Warmer weather means a faster rate of evaporation. The density of the air or humidity in the surrounding air is also a factor. If the air is already humid, evaporation will take longer.

What happens when the rate of evaporation of a liquid as the liquid is cooled?
Rate of evaporation depends on temperature. As Temp decreases, so does the rate of evaporation.
What in a dynamic equilibrium between the liquid state and the gas state the rate of evaporation is?
the rate of evaporation will be equal to the rate of condensation
Volume of water and evaporation rate?
Volume has no effect on evaporation rates. It is surface area that provides a time dependent variation.
How does the shape of a liquid drop play a role in the evaporation rate?
The relatively great surface area of a liquid drop impacts the evaporation rate. The greater the surface area, the greater the rate of evaporation. the converse is also true.
What is the unit of evaporation rate?
The evaporation rate can be expressed by the amount of water evaporated from a unit surface area per unit of time.
What happens when the rate of evaporation of a liquid as the liquid is cooled?
Rate of evaporation depends on temperature. As Temp decreases, so does the rate of evaporation.
How a warm day affect rate of evaporation?
The rate of evaporation increases
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)
How does temperature affect the rate of evaporation?
The higher the temperature, the higher the rate of evaporation. It is
What conditions will increase the rate of evaporation?
Heat speeds up the rate of evaporation.
How does the quality of water affect the rate of evaporation. Should it be considered for determining the rate of evaporation?
if quality of water reduce the evaporation will decrase
What is the normal rate of evaporetion?
The normal rate of evaporation is dependent on many factors. First, every type of molecule has a different rate of evaporation. For example, acetone has an evaporation rate of 3.0 while water has an evaporation rate of 0.3. You can find a complete listing of each molecule's evaporation rate at your local library. You can also find this information in most laboratories as well.
What in a dynamic equilibrium between the liquid state and the gas state the rate of evaporation is?
the rate of evaporation will be equal to the rate of condensation
The rate of evaporation of a liquid decreases as the temperature decreasestrue or false?
as the temperature increases, the rate of evaporation increases
Will the evaporation rate of gasoline increase if placed under pressure?
No, the rate of evaporation will decrease as pressure is increased.
What has a higher rate of evaporation hot water or cold water?
A higher rate of evaporation has hot water.
Does the rate of evaporation of a liquid decreases as the temperature decrease?
Yes, the evaporation rate slows at lower temperatures.
