Question

what is the effect of humidity on evaporation?

Answer 1

When temperature and wind speed are content but humidity increase the rate of evaporation with speed and humidity constant because warmer air can hold more water vapor than colder air.

Answer 2

Answer:

Humidity and the rate of evaporation are inversely proportional to each other. Therefore, the rate of evaporation decreases with an increase in humidity.

Explanation:

• The amount of water vapor in the air is referred to as humidity.
• Evaporation is the process of a liquid substance turning to a gaseous state (layer by layer) as the temperature rises.
• Humidity and evaporation rate are inversely proportional.
• More water vapors will be present in the atmosphere as humidity rises, and there will be less space for additional water. As a result, less evaporation occurs.
• If there is less humidity at a particular location, there will be fewer water vapors in the air, which means there will be more room in the air for more water, resulting in more evaporation.
• When the air is 100 percent humidified, it can no longer contain water and hence no evaporation can occur.
• As a result, as humidity rises, the rate of evaporation reduces.
