EVAPORATION OF
Water
Process that happens at the surface of water that
Changes the water to water Vapour. This process
can occur at any temperature.The changes in the
water molecules can be seen in Figure 5.7

The molecules of water at the surface have higher kinetic


energy thus they can move faster and escape into the air.
4 FACTORS AFFECTING THE RATE OF
Evaporation Of Water
EXPOSED SURFACE AREA OF THE
HUMIDITY SURROUNDING TEMPERATURE MOVEMENT OF AIR
WATER

When the surrounding temperature Movement of air sweeps away water


Dry air contains less water vapour.So Exposed surface area of the water
increases, the water molecules at the vapor in the air. High speed of wind
dry air can hold more molecules that that is larger allows more water
surface gain more energy, move faster causes the air at the surface of water to
escape from the surface of the water. molecules to escape.
and escape into the air easily. dry.

Thus,the rate of evaporation of water increases.
