Temperature only plays a small part in the evaporation process the major variable is Relative Humidity for if the surrounding environment has the ability to take on more water which is measurable as relative humidity atmospheric pressure also plays a part.
the greater the temp, the faster it evaporates

∙ 14y agoEvaporation causes water to form as steam in the Earth's atmosphere, We call them "clouds" In the day time, Clouds protect from the suns heat, after dark, clouds hold the heat in. Therefore, evaporation causes cloud formation which causes more consistent temperature.

What temperature does a liquid need to be at in order to evaporate?
Evaporation occurs at all temperatures, there is no set temperature for evaporation. The temperature would only affect the rate at which the liquid is evaporated - all other things being equal, warmer temperatures encourage faster evaporation. Evaporation will proceed much faster still if the surrounding air is very dry, and in constant motion.
What would be a good hypothesis for does sugar affect water evaporation?
The answer is yes, it does. Dissolved salt in water will lower the solution's vapor pressure according to Henry's Law. Evaporation rate is proportional to the difference in vapor pressure of the solution and the vapor pressure of the bulk gas phase over the water surface. I agree with the above answer as well except that the coldness of the surroundings is not a direct factor in determining the evaporation rate.
What would make water turn from a liquid to a gas?
You don't decrease the temperature, you raise the water's boiling point, or increase the water's temperature......
Can tornadoes affect the temperature or climate?
Tornadoes do not affect climate. Climate is the long term trend in weather patterns while a tornado is a short lived effect. Temperature inside a tornado is lower than it is in the surrounding environment. However, you would only experience this while inside the tornado itself.
How would increasing the temperature affect the rate of a reaction?
Doubles it
What would happen if a wet bulb had the same temperature as a dry bulb?
That means that there is 100% humidity. Normally evaporation from the wet bulb keeps its temperature lower than the dry bulb. At 100% humidity, there would be no evaporation, so they would show the same temperature.
How would a lower angle of insolation affect the maximum temperature of a surface?
vv
What will affect the rate of evaporation?
Assuming you are referring to a liquid exposed to air, then the factors affecting the evaporation are the temperature, and the air pressure. In a real-life situation, the presence of waves would also increase the evaporation rate.
How would a drop in temperature by 5 degrees affects evaporation?
Slower Evaporation/ Less particles changing state
What would slow down the evaporation rate of a body of water?
A decrease of temperature involve a decrease of the evaporation rate.
How can the hydrosphere affect the atmoshere?
The most major affect the hydrosphere has on the atmosphere would be evaporation. As water transfers between the two, it evaporates at a rate equivalent to the surface temperature of the area. As you reach the equator, the surface temperature rises, which causes more water to evaporate at the hydrosphere.
Would cutting trees affect the amount of evaporation in an area?
Yes.

How does a forest affect temperature?
The influence of a forest on temperature. The forest can lower the surface temperature on the surface during the season. The cool surface temperature allows for the growth of some vegetation that would not grow in the unprotected heat of the sun.
Would cutting down the trees affect the amount of evaporation in the area?
Yes.
What temp would water and sodium chloride separate?
For the evaporation - at any temperature over 0 deg. C; of course, increasing the temperature and the exposed area of the container (tank) evaporation will be faster.
Why would water evaporate faster in the winter indoors?
Evaporation depends on the environmental temperature.
