Define Evaporation List The Factors On Which The Rate Of Evaporation Depends And Explain How It Depends On Each Of Them
Answers
Answer:
The process of converting a substance in liquid state to gaseous state by absorption of heat at any temperature is called evaporation.
Factors affecting evaporation are:
- Temperature.. If temperature increases rate of evaporation also increases
- Humidity.. If humidity increases rate of evaporation decreases
- surface area.. If surface area increases rate of evaporation also increases
- Wind.. If wind blown is more rate of evaporation also increases
Answer:
evaporation is a surface phenomenon. the factors on which it depends are
1. temperature
2. humidity
3. wind speed
4. surface area
explanation:
1. the higher the temperature the more will the liquid evaporate.
2. if there humidity is high.. water is already filled in atmosphere. they is no space for the gas of the liquid. therefore the liquid will evaporate slower
3. the more the wind speed the evaporation is also more.. wind makes the liquid evaporate faster
4. surface area. as we know evaporation is a surface phenomenon where particles on the surface receive height and evaporate. so if the surface area is increased.. more particles will be on the surface.. making the evaporation faster
