Given the same amount of water how does pot size affect the amount of time it takes to boil water?
The larger the surface area the quicker it will boil (i.e. a large pan will boil quicker than a small narrow pan).
Does Water evaporate faster in a wide glass or narrow glass?
A tall, skinny glass will freeze water faster than a short, wide glass.This is because the tall glass allows convection (cold particles in the air to transfer cold to the water particles in the glass) to take place between more particles at once due to a tall glass having a larger surface area.
How does the area of exposed surface affect evaporation?
The larger the exposed surface area - the faster evaporation occurs.
Which kind of surface can radiate heat quickly to the surroundings?
the surfaces with larger surface area radiate heat quickly as compared to those with lower surface area
How does surface area affect the evaporation rate of water?
The bigger the surface area of water the more evaporation will take place.
Does water evaporate quicker on a bigger surface area?
I believe only surface water, ie water in contact with air, evaporates.Therefore the larger the surface area,the faster the evaporation.......Tony

Why does sand cool down faster than rocks?
Sand has a larger surface area, therefore cooling quicker.
Why does water evaporate when the water is spread over a larger surface?
The area exposed to evaporation in the atmosphere is larger.
What effect does crushing sugar have on solution rate?
Crushing sugar into smaller particulates INCREASES the rate at which the sugar will dissolve because the water can act on a larger overall surface area.
How does surface area affect diffusion rate?
Diffusion is the movement of particles across a selectively permeable membrane, from a high concentration to a low concentration. So the larger the surface area, the quicker the rate of diffusion because there is more space to diffuse in.
Which has a larger surface area powder or lumps?
A powder has a larger surface area.
Which is greater land or water?
Water has a larger surface area on the earth. Land has a greater mass.
How does the size of a water body influence the conditions in water pools?
The larger the pool, the greater the surface area of the water so there is a larger force required to move the water.
How does surface area affect damping of an oscillation?
The larger the surface area, the larger the damping of an oscillation
What dissolves quicker in water one gram of cube sugar or one gram of caster sugar?
Caster sugar will dissolve quicker because because of a greater surface area.
How does a cell's ratio of surface area to volume change as the cell grows larger?
As the cell grows larger the ratio of surface area to volume increases. Larger cell = more volume for the amount surface area.
