The specific heat capacity of water is about 4.18kJ/kg*K while the specific heat of seawater is about 3.95kJ/kg*K

Specific heat capacity is a measure of heat required to increase temperature of something by Celsius or Kelvin.

Since water's heat capacity is great than that of seawater, then it takes more heat to bring its temperature up

Why does salt water evaporate slower than regular water?

salt water evaporates slower than regular water because the salt makes it harder to boil and evaporate


Does salt water freeze faster or slower than fresh water?

Salt water is slower.


Which water evapourates faster tapsalt and fresh?

It is thought that the water that evaporates the fastest is fresh, with tap and saltwater right behind it. The salt is seen as a barrier to quick evaporation, which is why it is considered slower to evaporate.


What water evaporates fastest salt or fresh?

SALT will evaporate the fastes


Do water evaporate faster or slower with salt in it?

Pure water is evaporated faster.


Will water with salt evaporate faster than water with out salt?

No, it will evaporate slower. When salt or another nonvolatile solute is added to water it raises the boiling point, making it more difficult to evaporate.


Will fresh water or salt evaporate faster?

At the same temperature fresh water evaporates faster.


Will salt fresh or tap water evaporate the quickest?

tap water will evaporate the fastest. I know this because i did the experiment for school.


What are the results of the project what evaporates faster salt water or fresh water?

Salt water evaporates slower than fresh water because the presence of salt reduces the rate of evaporation by increasing the water's boiling point. This means fresh water will evaporate faster due to having a lower boiling point and not being weighed down by salt molecules.


Does salt water or fresh water evaporate faster?

Fresh water evaporates faster because the dissolved salts in salt water raise the boiling point by strengthening the intermolecular bonds water molecules have with each other. It's why you salt pasta water--to increasing the boiling point of the water so you can cook it at a higher temperature (and season the pasta). Adding salts also lower the freezing point of water, which is why people salt roads before snow.


Can salt evaporate from water?

Yes, salt can evaporate from water. When water evaporates, it leaves behind the salt, which does not evaporate.


Which water evaporate fasterSugar water or fresh water?

they would both evaporate at the same rate just the sugar would be left behind in a more natural state. same way you get salt out of salt water.
