How does increase in surface area effect rate of evaporation?

An increase in surface area will typically increase the rate of evaporation. This is because more surface area means more of the liquid is exposed to the surrounding air, allowing for more molecules to escape as vapor. Additionally, increased surface area can lead to a thinner layer of liquid, reducing the distance vapor molecules need to travel to escape.


What is energy absorbed and stored in vaporous molecules called?

The energy absorbed and stored in vaporous molecules is referred to as latent heat. This represents the energy required to change the state of a substance without a change in temperature, such as during the process of evaporation or condensation.


What is energy absorbed in stored in vaporous molecules called?

Latent heat


Is energy released when separating water molecules as ice melts?

Yes, that's right.What you are referring to is called the enthalpy of fusion or the latent heat of fusion.


What are two changes of state for water that cause latent heat to be released?

When water vapor condenses into liquid water, latent heat is released. Similarly, when liquid water freezes into ice, latent heat is also released. These changes of state involve the release of latent heat because energy is being released as the water molecules transition to a lower energy state.


What type of energy is absorbed or released when a substance changes phase?

pChanges in bonding arrangements between atoms and molecules result in absorption or release of heat (called latent heat). For example when water freezes, some heat is extracted to the environment, and the temperature does not fall until all is frozen. After that further removal of heat causes the temperature to fall below freezing point.


What is the correct term for the hidden heat found in water vapor molecules?

Latent Heat

In a recording of a muscle twitch the delay between the time a stimulus is applied and the time the muscle responds is called?

Latent period


How do you get a latent fingerprint to show on a porous surface?

couldn't you but paint on a finger and press into it???


Why does evaporation cool things?

Water and other liquids absorb heat energy from their surroundings when they evaporate. Since the high-energy molecules leave the liquid's surface, the remaining liquid molecules have less average energy , That makes evaporation a cooling process.
