    Study Notes

    Project Title

    • Study of Rate of Evaporation of Different Liquids

    Objective

    • To investigate the effects of various factors on the evaporation rate of liquids.
    • To identify the factors influencing evaporation rate.
    • Factors to be tested: Nature of liquid, Surface Area, Temperature, and Environmental factors.

    Introduction

    • Evaporation is a natural process where a liquid transforms into a gas.
    • Evaporation occurs at temperatures below the boiling point, though slower.
    • Evaporation is essential to the water cycle.
    • Evaporation rate varies based on factors like temperature, surface area, and pressure.
    • Examples include sweating, rain cycles.

    Factors Affecting Evaporation Rate

    • Temperature: Higher temperature increases evaporation rate by providing more energy to liquid molecules, enabling quicker escape into the gaseous state.
    • Surface Area: Increased surface area exposes more liquid molecules to the surrounding environment, resulting in a faster evaporation rate.
    • Air Pressure: Lower atmospheric pressure leads to a higher evaporation rate.
    • Relative Humidity: Higher humidity reduces evaporation rate as moist air has less capacity to absorb more water vapor.
    • Liquid Nature: Different liquids have varied evaporation rates due to intermolecular forces. Stronger intermolecular forces lead to slower evaporation. Acetone evaporates faster than water due to weaker intermolecular forces

    Experiments

    • Experiment 1: Comparing Evaporation Rates (Water vs Acetone):

      • Used two types of liquids (water and acetone)
      • Measured evaporation time.
      • Found Acetone was more volatile than water. Stronger intermolecular forces cause water to evaporate slower.

    • Experiment 2: Effect of Surface Area on Evaporation Rate (Acetone):

      • Evaluated evaporation of acetone using petri dishes of different sizes (surface areas).
      • Larger surface area resulted in faster evaporation.

    • Experiment 3: Effect of Air Current on Evaporation Rate (Acetone):

      • Assessed evaporation with a fan's air current on one dish and not on the other dish.
      • Faster evaporation was observed when the fan was on.

    • Experiment 4: Effect of Temperature on Evaporation Rate (Acetone):

      • Heated water to a constant temperature of 70°C
      • Observed the evaporation time of acetone
      • The higher the temperature, the faster the evaporation rate of acetone.

    Conclusion

    • Evaporation rate is directly proportional to temperature, surface area, and air current.
    • Liquids with weaker intermolecular forces have faster evaporation rates.
