Yes, evaporation can still occur in a closed container, but the rate of evaporation will eventually slow down because the amount of water vapor in the container will reach an equilibrium with the liquid water. At this point, the rate of condensation will equal the rate of evaporation.

How does evaporation in a closed container differ from evaporation in an open container?

In a closed container, the water vapor cannot escape into the surrounding air, so the rate of evaporation decreases as the space becomes saturated. In an open container, the water vapor can escape into the surrounding air, allowing for continuous evaporation as long as there is a difference in vapor pressure between the liquid and the air.


What will cause a decrease in pressure in a closed container?

A decrease will occur if the lid of the container is opened.


What happens to molecules with sufficient energy when a liquid is placed in a closed container?

When a liquid is placed in a closed container, molecules with sufficient energy can escape from the liquid and turn into gas. This process is called evaporation.


What is Effect of relative humidity on water evaporation?

humidity effects the evaporation in the following ways: 1. In a closed container rate of evaporation will have a lesser value than usual.but there will be no decrease in the rate.


A sample of water was found to boil at 15C in a closed container What must have been true for this to occur?

The pressure must have been extremely low in the container.


A sample of water was found to boil at 105C in a closed container What must have been true for this to occur?

The pressure must have been extremely low in the container.


Does the type of container affect the evaporation?

Yes, the type of container can affect evaporation. For example, a sealed container will slow down evaporation compared to an open container. Additionally, materials like glass or metal can also affect evaporation rates compared to porous materials like paper or cloth.


A sample of water vapor was found to condense at 105C in a closed container What must have been true for this to occur?

The pressure must have been higher than 1 ATM in the container.


Why is an umbrella opened to dry?

When the umbrella is opened its surface is now bigger than if it was closed. If the surface is bigger, the water evaporation will occur faster.


What is the relationship between the rate of evaporation and the rate of condensation of the vapor of a liquid in a closed container and has a constant vapor pressure?

In a system at constant vapor pressure, a dynamic equilibrium exists between the vapor and the liquid. The system is in equilibrium because the rate of evaporation of liquid equals the rate of condensation of vapor. -KarkatHorns
