how is rate of evaporation of an aqueous solution decreases with increase in humidity of surrounding
air
kalyanikolthay:
this is as the inter molecular space in humid air is almost completely occupied. In the case of dry air there is large amount of inter molecular space where the evaporated water molecules can situate themselves. the rate of evaporation in humid air is thus compromised

AS WE ALL KNOW THAT EVAPORATION IS THE PROCESS IN WHICH THE AQUES SOLUTION GETS CONVERTED INTO
VAPOUR AT ANY TEMPERATURE BELOW THE BOLING POINT ND THERE ARE MAY FACTORS INFLUENCING THE RATE OF
EVAPORATION-
1] SURFACE AREA
2] HUMIDITY
3]WIND SPEED
4] TEMPERATURE
NOW IF THE HUMIDITY WILL INCREASE THE RATE OF EVAPORATION WILL BECOME SLOW AS THERE WILL BE LESS HEAT ENERGY IN THE ENVIRONMENT DUE TO HUMIDITY.
