DOES thin liquid evaporates faster than thick liquid?

Answer 1

It's not that thick and thin liquids take different amounts of time to boil, it's that they take different amounts of heat. You can apply a small amount of heat to something thick like lotion for days, and it will never boil if there isn't enough heat.

Answer 2

Yes, in general, thinner liquids evaporate faster than thicker liquids because the molecules in thinner liquids have more surface area exposed to the air, allowing for quicker evaporation. Thinner liquids also tend to have lower viscosity, which allows the molecules to move more freely and escape into the air.

Answer 3

A liquid boils when its intermolecular forces are broken. A "thin" liquid is less viscous, therefore one would expect its intermolecular forces to be less and, therefore, it would boil more quickly.

Viscous - thick

Volatile - easily evaporated

Answer 4

It mostly depends on the viscosity not on how much or anything liek that also how much heat you are putting on to the liquid

Answer 5

thick liquids boil faster because the particles are closer together so heat passes from one particle to another more quickly

Answer 6

Assuming that you mean will the thin liquid flow faster, then yes. Try it...over the sink with filling a cup with honey or water.

Answer 7

Neither thinness, thickness, or viscosity have nothing to do with how fast liquids boil.

Answer 8

Yes.

There's more intramolecular attraction in dense, sticky liquids. So evaporation is also slower in the thick ones.

Answer 9

yes they do people start paying attention to what u do

Answer 10

The answer is in the question. The definition of melt is to make liquid. So therefore both "thin" and "thick" liquids have already reach a state of being melted.
