    The document describes an experiment to observe the evaporation rate of diethyl ether in three Petri dishes labeled A, B, and C. 10 mL of diethyl ether was pipetted into each dish, which were then uncovered and timed for 10 minutes. The remaining volume was noted for each dish to determine the order of evaporation, with the expectation that the dish with the largest surface area would evaporate the most diethyl ether due to an increased surface area available for vaporization.

    PROCEDURE:

    1. Clean and dry all Petri dishes and mark


    them as A, B and C.

    2.Pipette out 10 mol of diethyl ether in


    each of the Petri dishes A, B and C and
    cover them immediately.

    3.Uncover all three Petri dishes and start


    the stop watch.

    4.Note the remaining volume after 10 min


    vaporization of diethyl ether from each
    Petri dish.

    It will be observed that maximum

    evaporation occurs in Petridis with largest
    diameter followed by small and smaller
    Petridis.

    It is therefore concluded that the rate of


    evaporation increases with increase in
    surface area.
