What will happen to the water in Mono Lake if the water evaporates and the pH of the water was 9.8 beforehand?

The water in a lake that evaporates enters the atmosphere as water vapour. That parts simple. Just as you said, so it is. The excess OH- combines with whatever cations were in the water keeping it in electrostatic balance to form hydroxide salts. Most likely this will be Calcium and Sodium.

What is the term water flows downhill into a shrink the stream flows into a lake and water evaporates from lake?
This is the water cycle.
What is left behind when lake water evaporates?
All of the suspended solids will settle on the lake bed if it was a salt lake you would have a layer of salt
What would happen to your ERV when you tread water in a lake?
Filled with air
Do halite crystals form when fresh water evaporates?
Halite is rock salt. Even some fresh water lakes have Na+ and Cl- dissolved in them, so I would guess that yes, some halite forms. But probably not all that much compared to a salt lake evaporating.
Why does mono lake have a high pH and salt concentration?
Because all the rivers that run into it carry alkaline and salt minerals. Then as the water evaporates from the lake, the alkaline chemicals and the salts are left behind. Since Mono Lake does not connect with an ocean, its alkaline and salt content keeps on rising, and will continue to rise in the future.
What happen when water evaporates from lake?
Water is transformed in vapors; the volume of lake decrease.
What is an area where water warms and evaporates?
For example a lake.
What is the term water flows downhill into a shrink the stream flows into a lake and water evaporates from lake?

How a stream flows into a lake and water evaporates from the lake?
Evaporation of water occur at any temperature at the surface of a body of water.
What happens when fresh lake water evaporates?
it turns into a cloud
How does water from a lake or river eventually becomes a cloud?
It evaporates.
When the lake water evaporates the water level usually?
The water level usually decrease.
When water flows down hill into a stream. the stream flows into a lake and water evaporates from the lake?
Yes, it is correct.
What happens to rain water that drains into the Great Salt Lake?
It evaporates. Because the lake has no outlet.
What cauases clouds to form?
When the water from the ocean or lake evaporates and then condenses into water droplets.
What are the events in the formation of an evaporite?
An evaporite is a sedimentary rock that is soluble in water. It occurs where there is a lake that evaporates more quickly than rain or river water enters the lake. The water evaporates and the rich mineral sediment becomes a rock or a crystal.
What is left behind when lake water evaporates?
All of the suspended solids will settle on the lake bed if it was a salt lake you would have a layer of salt
