What happens when fresh water evaporates from the surface of the ocean?

Answer 1

The ocean becomes salter because the salt in the ocean can't be evaporated.

Incorrect. !!

The water vapour formed over the oceans eventually falls back to Earth as rainfall, and the cycle repeats.

Answer 2

In all realism, an ocean evaporating on Earth is probably impossible, just because of the water cycle. When water evaporates, it becomes gas, and being caught in the gravitational pull of the planet, just floats around in the atmosphere. Eventually it comes back down in the form of rain, starting over. An ocean can't evaporate because the atmosphere can't hold it all, and will just send it back down. Smaller bodies of water can easily evaporate, though. Their water is displaced into other places, including the oceans.

Answer 3

Because of the heat of the sun. It turns water into vapour which forms clouds which make rain. It is all part of the water cycle.

Answer 4

because the ocean is the largest source of water on earth

Answer 5

Moisture collects in the atmosphere as clouds and it rains. Its called tyhe water cycle.

Answer 6

The vapor is made of tiny drops of water then when all the water accumulates it falls(rain).

Answer 7

The Sun and wind causes water vapour to rise off the surface of the oceans and form clouds. The water vapour rises because it is relatively warm.

Answer 8

Because ther is to much

Answer 9

the sun
