Evaporation Rate | MCQs

Explanation

The rate of evaporation can be increased by:

• Decreasing atmospheric pressure
• Increasing temperature
• Decreasing humidity
• Increasing the surface area of the liquid

Explanation

• In the evaporation process, liquid molecules gain energy and move faster.
• It allowing them to escape from the surface of the liquid into the surrounding air.
• This occurs when the molecules have enough energy to overcome the intermolecular forces holding them to the surface.
