Water evaporates faster in the sun. It does this because the water heats up, boils, and turns from a liquid to a gas.

Does water in a jar evaporate faster in sun or shade?

Water in a jar will evaporate faster in the sun compared to being in the shade. The heat from the sun increases the kinetic energy of water molecules, causing them to evaporate more quickly. In the shade, the cooler temperature slows down the rate of evaporation.


Will a jar of water float to the bottom of a bucket of water?

No, a jar of water will not float to the bottom of a bucket of water. The jar will sink to the bottom due to its weight and density compared to the surrounding water.


How does a water balloon get suction into a jar?

When a water balloon placed over the mouth of a jar is squeezed, the air inside the jar is compressed. When this compression occurs, the pressure inside the jar drops slightly, creating a suction force. This suction force, produced as a result of the pressure difference between the outside and inside of the jar, causes the water from the balloon to be drawn into the jar.


Why does the amount of water in a jar affect the distance it can roll?

The amount of water in the jar affects its weight, which in turn affects its momentum and ability to roll. More water increases the weight of the jar, making it harder to move and decreasing the distance it can roll.


Why will a sealed jar float?

The jar, much like massive ships on the ocean, displaces the water and thus it floats. The jar doesn't even need to be sealed--but it does have to remain upright so it doesn't tip over and fill with water. You can imagine the water that is being displaced pushing upward toward the jar to to keep it afloat despite the jar's weight. Another factor that may be playing a part in this is that in a sealed jar, much like an inner tube at the pool, the air inside is less dense than water. The general rule of physics, in this case, is that less dense objects are "lighter" than those of more dense objects--the relative densities of the two things (water and the jar filled with air) would determine which object rises to the top.

If a jar has its lid on with water and salt in the jar does it evaporate?

no


How much salt is in one small jar of water?

let the water evaporate and measure the salt that is left in the jar


Can water evaporate in a sealed jar?

If the jar is not completely full of water, and the air inside is not completely saturated, then yes, a little bit can.


How can you change the states of water?

boil it, freeze it or leave it in a jar to evaporate


Why does a liquid not evaporate if you store it in a sealed jar?

It has nowhere to evaporate to. Evaporation is dispersion of molecules.


Will water evaporate from a container?

Yes, water can evaporate from a container if the temperature is high enough for the liquid to reach its boiling point. Evaporation is the process in which water molecules escape from the surface of the liquid and enter the air as vapor.


What is the term for the removal of salt from ocean water?

You have to put some sea water in a jar and then wait for the water to evaporate-you need to put the jar near somewhere hot. Then when all the water has evaporated, you are only left with salt in the jar.


Why does more water evaporate from a jar wityhout a lid than a jar with a lid?

Imagine the air surrounding the water is like a sponge. When the lid is closed, only the air in the jar acts like a sponge, so we have a very small sponge. When the lid is open, ideally all the surroundig air acts like a sponge, and that is very big.


Will ice melt faster with a jar open or a jar closed?

Faster witout the cap. More warm air would interact with the ice.


What happens when you leave out water in a clean jar for 24 hrs?

If you leave out water in a clean jar for 24 hours, the water will begin to slowly evaporate, especially if the room is warm or if there is air circulation. The rate of evaporation will depend on factors like temperature and humidity.
