Question

what is effect of decreasing surface area on the rate of evaporation​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

→ Evaporation increases with an increase in the surface area. If the surface area is increased, then the amount is of liquid that is exposed to air is larger. More molecules can escape with a wider surface area.

Answer 2

Answer:

As the surface area increases more number of particles of liquid exposed to atmosphere because of which the conversion of liquid particles to vapour phase increases. Thus rate of evaporation increases with surface area.
