Question

State reasons for the following statement : The rate of evaporation increases with increase in surface area.

Answer 1

• When a liquid transforms into a gas, it is called evaporation. It's also referred to as vaporisation. It frequently occurs at the water's surface. It is a gradual and constant process that occurs at all temperatures.
• Evaporation increases with the increase in surface area. It is because, the larger the surface area that is exposed to air, the more molecules will escape into the air.
