Question

When the temperature of water rises, the rate of evaporation decreases. State whether true or false.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

The statement if False.

Actually, rate of evaporation of a liquid decreases as the temperature decreases. As intermolecular force increase rate of evaporation decreases. This happens because intermolecular force make it less likely for the molecules on the surface to escape from liquid and become vapour gas. As temperature increases rate of evaporation increases.
