It entirely depends on how much power or rate of energy flow there is into the water, which requires the latent heat of vaporisation (2.26 x 106 Joules/kg for water) to be supplied. Thus if the energy flow is 1 kW = 1000 Joules/sec, the mass of water evaporated per second will be 1000/2.26 x 106 kg or 0.4425 x 10-3 kg, which means it will take 2260 seconds to evaporate one kg, or about 38 minutes. Obviously in a large power plant where the energy flow might be 1000 MW, this is one million times as much, and you would evaporate 1000 tonnes (a million kg) in the same time.

How much salt is left after the water has evaporated.?

Salt does not evaporate with water, so all the salt that was initially in the water remains behind once the water has evaporated. This is because salt has a much higher boiling point than water and remains in solid form when the water evaporates.


How much water in the water cycle is evaporated from the ocean?

Try it!


How much clouds exist?

It depends on how much water that evaporated.


In the process of distillation why does salt not evaporate?

Salt does not evaporate during distillation because its boiling point is much higher than that of water. Distillation separates substances based on the differences in their boiling points, so salt remains behind in the residue as the water evaporates and is collected as distillate.


How much water gets evaporated from a puddle after it rains?

How much water turns into rain?

The water evaporated first condenses. This condensed water turns into rain.

Does salt evaporate in boiling water?

No, salt does not evaporate in boiling water. When water boils, it turns into steam, leaving behind the salt in the water. Salt does not have a low enough boiling point to evaporate along with the water.


How much water evaporates when boiling?

When boiling water, it evaporates and turns into steam. The amount of water that evaporates depends on factors like temperature and time, but generally, about 10 of the water evaporates when boiling.


Why does water in an aquirium go down?

Because some of the water is evaporated into the air. Salt water is evaporated much faster than fresh water.


Crystals can form as water evaporates or if too much of a substance is dissolved in water?

Water being evaporated salts remain as residues.


Does chocolate dissolve fast?
