Answer 2

The change of liquid into its vapour form at any temperature point is called as evaporation. Evaporation is a surface phenomena.

» The conditions that increases the rate of evaporation are :-

→ Increase in Temperature :- The increase in temperature makes evaporation faster.

→ Increase in Surface area :- Increasing the surface area also makes evaporation faster.

→ Increase in wind speed :- Increasing the wind speed increases evaporation rate.

→ Decreasing humidity :- Decreasing humidity increases the rate of evaporation for water.
