hi this will help you- because as it will have less surface area it will not dry fast but if the surface area is more then the evaporation will become more faster. for example: when the tea is hot if we will keep it in a cup it will not become more cold than compare to the tea kept in the saucer

HI Nikki !!!

=> Evaporation is known as Surface Phenomenon.
=>This is because , in this process , only the surface of water is involved in the change of liquid state of water to gaseous state.
=>Here , in this process , only molecules of water , that are present at the surface of water , are involved in the change of liquid state of water to gaseous state
=>Also , when surface area increases , the rate of evaporation also increases.
=>Hence ,evaporation is called as surface phenomenon
