Which of the following factors does not affect the rate of evaporation of a liquid?

  • A. temperature
  • B. volume
  • C. wind
  • D. surface area

Correct Answer: B. volume

Explanation

The rate of evaporation depends on temperature, presence of wind, the humidity of the surrounding, and the surface area of the liquid exposed to the atmosphere. It doesn't depend on the mass of the liquid. The larger the surface area, the more would be the rate of evaporation.
