Most water vapor in the Atmosphere comes from Evaporation from lakes, oceans, and rivers (larger bodies of water). However, water vapor can also come from evaporation from the leaves of plants (transpiration) and even from animals. If you have ever been sweating in a hot and dry climate area, you have contributed to the total amount of water vapor in the area.

What is the Difference between airs and gases and water vapour?

Air is the mixture of different gases (like oxigen, nitrogen, co2 e.t.c.) & water vapour. Gases are only gases, here is no water vapour. And water vapour is form after the vapourization of water at high temperature.


What source of energy evaporates the most water from Earths surface?

Solar energy is the primary source of energy that drives the evaporation of water from Earth's surface. Solar radiation heats the Earth's surface, causing water to evaporate and enter the atmosphere as water vapor. Wind and temperature also play a role in the rate of evaporation.


What will most likely happen if water falls on a hot stove?

The water will evaporate quickly due to the heat of the stove. It may sizzle or produce steam upon contact with the hot surface. If the stove is extremely hot, the water may even evaporate before making direct contact.


What is the most abundant gas in our atmosphere oxygen hydrogen nitrogen water?

Nitrogen is the most abundant gas in Earth's atmosphere, making up about 78% of the air we breathe. Oxygen is the second most abundant gas, at around 21%. Hydrogen is present in very small amounts, and water vapor is a variable component of the atmosphere.


Does chlorine evaporate from tap water?

Yes, most chlorine will have dissipated from tap water in 10-15 minutes. Many recommend waiting a full 24 hours to be safe. Many municipalities now use chloramine, however, which can take much longer. Waiting 48 hours is not a bad idea.

What is the most evaporated gas on earth?

Nitrogen is the most abundant gas in the atmosphere, so it must be the most evaporated. It is not found in its liquid state on Earth. Water vapour is present in the atmosphere and the planet is more than 70% water so water might also be a contender for the most evaporated gas on Earth.


How is water vapor generated?

Water vapour is most commonly know as a steam substance when water has started to boil and turn into a gas. Water vapour on a lake for example will rise into the atmosphere and start to condense into a cloud which will later on fall as a liquid (rain) when it is cool. This is called Changing State.
