The rate at which a container of water cools depends on the surface area of the water exposed to the open air because the more water is exposed, the faster its molecules will cool.

How is surface area important?

Surface area affects several things, such as how quickly an object cools down; the rate of chemical reactions will also depend on the exposed area.


Is there an mineral precipitate from boiled water when the water cools?

I boil tap water in three gallon stainless steel container and each time the water cools a fair amount of white mineral precipitates - Ca + Mg - collecting on the interior surface of the container, also a fai amount freely precipitates and collects at the bottom of the container. I have drank the water for years.

Magma that has emerged from the earth?

Magma that has emerged from the earth is known as lava. When magma is exposed to the surface through volcanic eruptions, it cools and solidifies into igneous rock. The type of igneous rock formed depends on the composition of the magma and the rate of cooling.


What rock is formed when magama cools at the earth's surface?

Igneous rock, such as basalt or rhyolite, is formed when magma cools at the Earth's surface.


When volcano lava cools at the surface?

When magma cools at the surface of the Earth, it cools very quickly and hardens on the Earths crust. However, it continues flowing underneath, forming interesting textures.

Does a larger exposed surface area causes evaporation?

Yes,a larger exposed surface area makes evaporation faster,for eg-: tea kept in a cup cools slowly than tea kept in the saucer because evaporation takes place quicker at the saucer because the saucer has a wider surface area than the cup.So the particles of tea evaporate fast hence cooling down.

Why does liquids condense on the inside of containers?

When warm air comes into contact with a cool surface, it loses heat and its moisture condenses into liquid droplets. This process, known as condensation, occurs because the temperature of the container is cooler than the dew point of the air inside. The moisture in the air transitions from vapor to liquid as it cools, causing it to collect on the container's surface.


What does felsic magma make after its solid?

It will form granite if it cools underground and rhyolite if it cools at the surface.
