Exploration 3 - Making sense of your model

Questions

Please answer the questions below.

How does your model help explain why the drop in the open system evaporates more quickly than the one in the closed system?

Your teacher will assign your group one of these factors. Check the box next to the factor you are assigned below:

The amount of surface area of liquid exposed to the air
The temperature of the liquid
The temperature of the air above the liquid
The wind speed of the air above the liquid
The air pressure above the liquid
The amount of humidity in the air above the liquid

Why would changes to that factor probably affect the rate of evaporation?
