Rate of evaporation increases with
General KnowledgeChemistry
- Aan increase of surface area
- Ban increase in humidity
- Ca decrease in wind speed
- Da decrease of temperature
Explanation
Evaporation quickens with higher temperature, lower humidity, stronger wind and a larger exposed surface area — more molecules escape per unit time from a wider surface. It does not depend on the total mass of the liquid. Hence surface area of the liquid.
