What is the primary reason for faster evaporation in an area of low pressure?

There is less exertion on the surface keeping the molecules from launching themselves (correct)

Molecules have less energy to escape

Molecules are more densely packed

Molecules have a lower boiling point

Why does a substance with a larger surface area evaporate faster?

Because there are more surface molecules that can escape (correct)

Because the density of the substance decreases

Because the temperature of the substance increases

Because there are fewer molecules at the surface

What is the relationship between the density of a substance and its evaporation rate?

Density has no effect on evaporation rate

Higher density results in faster evaporation

Higher density results in slower evaporation (correct)

Lower density results in faster evaporation
