what are the factors that affect evaporation?
Answers
The turning of any liquid into vapour is called Evaporation. The factors affecting the evaporation are:
1. Temperature. As the temperature increases, the rate of evaporation also increases.
2. Surface Area. As the Surface area increases, the rate of evaporation increases.
3. Density. As the density increases, the rate of evaporation decreases.
4. Wind Velocity. The velocity of the wind also affects the rate of evaporation. As the velocity of wind increases, the rate of evaporation increases.
1. Temperature:- The rate of evaporation increases with increase in temperature. Ex:- When their is a hot sunny day clothes dry faster.
2. Surface area:- The rate of temperature increases when their is a increase in surface area. Ex:- When we put clothes we spread them.
3. Humidity:- The amount of water vapour present in the air is called humidity. The rate of evaporation decreases with an increase in humidity. Ex:- On a hot humid day clothes does't dry faster.
4. Wind speed:- Rate of evaporation increases with an increase in speed. Ex:- On a windy day clothes dry faster.
