Question

briefly discuss the factors which affect evaporation

Answer 1

The rate of evaporation is affected by the following factors:Temperature: The rate of evaporation increases with an increase in temperature.Surface area: The rate of evaporation increases with an increase in surface area.
Humidity: The amount of water vapour present in the air is called humidity. The rate of evaporation decreases with an increase in humidity.
Wind speed: Evaporation increases with an increase in wind speed.

Answer 2

As the faster-moving molecules escape, the remaining molecules have lower average kinetic energy, and the temperature of the liquid decreases. ... Three key parts to evaporation are heat, atmospheric pressure (determines the percent humidity), and air movement.
