First it's HCl (with a lowercase L) not HCI.

But as to the small amount of acid needed to provide the increase: HCl is a strong acid and so it completely dissociates to produce H+ ions, so the H+ concentration equals the HCl(aq) concentration.

A decrease in pH from 7 to 6 represents an increase in H+ ions from 10-7M to 10-6M. This would therefore only require the addition of about 3.65X10-5 grams of HCl for one liter of water, a very small quantity.

Why does the rate of evaporation of an aqueous solution decrease with the increase in humidity?

As the humidity increases, the partial pressure of water vapor in the atmosphere (above the solution being evaporated) also increases. This results in more energy being necessary for the liquid water to evaporate, thus the higher the humidity, the longer it will take for evaporation of an aqueous solution to take place. This is essentially based on Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures.

Do mountains increase or decrease in size?

Mountains can both increase and decrease in size over time. Factors such as tectonic plate movement, erosion, and volcanic activity can lead to the growth or reduction of mountain size. Overall, the net effect of these processes determines whether a mountain increases or decreases in size.
