Yes, the surface area of a container can affect water loss due to evaporation. A larger surface area provides more opportunities for water molecules to escape into the air, leading to increased evaporation rates. Conversely, a smaller surface area can help reduce water loss.
Yes, the shape of the container can affect the rate of evaporation. A container with a larger surface area will typically allow for faster evaporation compared to a container with a smaller surface area. This is because more water molecules are exposed to the air in a larger container, leading to increased evaporation.
The rate at which a container of water cools depends on the surface area of the water exposed to the open air because a larger surface area allows for more water molecules to come into contact with the air, promoting heat transfer. This enhanced contact accelerates the cooling process since heat is lost more efficiently to the surroundings due to increased exposure. Conversely, a smaller surface area reduces the rate of cooling as fewer molecules interact with the air.
To answer this question we would need to know the BTUs of the hot plate, the area of the hotplate's surface, the interconnecting area of the hotplates surface and the water container. The Heat capacity of water we can get from a reference book.
It affects the rate of evaporation because of the container blocking the direct sunlight toward the water inside the container. The container will probably heat up and get warm first then the water will start to heat up and start to evaporate when it gets hot enough but very slowly due to the indirect sunlight.
Because the when water freezes the atoms contract closely together. When the atoms are heated they are again contracted and take up surface area. The size is the same through the whole process but the amount of surface area changes.
the bigger the surface area the faster the water will evaporate
The shape of a container affects the freezing rate of water because it can impact the surface area exposed to the surrounding environment. A container with a larger surface area allows for more heat transfer, resulting in faster freezing. Conversely, a container with a smaller surface area will have slower heat transfer and slower freezing.
Yes. Other things being equal, the cooling rate should be more or less proportional to the surface area.
Yes, the shape of the container can affect the rate of evaporation. A container with a larger surface area will typically allow for faster evaporation compared to a container with a smaller surface area. This is because more water molecules are exposed to the air in a larger container, leading to increased evaporation.
Yes, the shape of a container can affect heat transfer by influencing the surface area exposed to the surrounding environment. A container with a larger surface area will generally transfer heat more efficiently than one with a smaller surface area. Additionally, the shape can impact convection currents within the container, further influencing heat transfer.
Therefore you would have to calculate the are inside the container and add it onto the total.
The bigger the surface area of water the more evaporation will take place.
Yes, the size of a container can affect the rate of evaporation. A larger container will have more surface area, allowing for more molecules to escape and evaporate. However, the shape of the container typically has less effect on the rate of evaporation, as it is primarily the surface area that influences the rate.

Temperature and surface area
Surface area? That will vary considerably. The smallest surface area will be if the water is suspended weightless, in the shape of a sphere. It could be in a pan 1/16 of an inch deep. Specify the shape you are interested in.
The water pressure at the bottom of the container is calculated by dividing the total force by the area of the bottom surface. In this case, the water pressure at the bottom of the container would be 37.5 newtons per square meter (450 newtons ÷ 12 square meters).
