The kinetic theory of matter states that all molecules are made up of a large number of tiny atoms or molecules, which are in continuous motion. So the molecules in the liquid are in continuous motion. This motion is measured as kinetic energy, or temperature. So temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy. Note the "average". Some of the molecules move faster, some move slower. Those that are faster eventually break free of their bonds to become gasses. If temperature is increased, then the molecules move about faster, and therefore more of them break free of their bonds.

Yes it would. If the temperatures hotter, it will evaporate more quickly.If it's colder it will evaporate less quickly.

Generally what happen to most liquids if the temperature is increased?

They get hotter and evaporate more quickly. When the liquid reaches the evaporation point of one of its constituents, the temperature stops increasing while that part evaporates.


What happens to a substance if temperature increases?

The average velocity of molecules increases. If the temperature is increased by a sufficient amount, a solid with either melt of sublimate, a liquid will evaporate. Some materials will begin to smoulder or burst into flames. At even higher temperatures, the substances may enter unusual phases.


Boiling liquid maintains a constant temperature?

The boiling point temperature remains constant because liquids evaporate at this point. If the temperature drops the liquid will no longer boil. At a higher temperature the vapor becomes hotter, not the liquid.


How does temperature effect vapour pressure of a liquid?

as the temperature increase the liquid becomes less condensed and the pressure decreases. as its molecule lossen they move faster, the liquid will turn into a gas. if the temperature decreases then it will do the opposite. it would slow down the molecules, and increase the pressure, making a solid.


Why does water evaporate quicker on a hot day than on a cold day?

Evaporation is determined by the speed of particles. It occurs when some particles move faster than others and have enough energy to break the surface of the solution and become vapor. Temperature measures the speed of particles, so if the temperature is high, the particles will move faster and will evaporate quicker.

Liquid samples are most likely to evaporate when temperature is increased.


To cause liquid water to evaporate what could you do?

Two ways to get water to evaporate faster than normal are to increase the temperature or decrease the pressure.


How can liquid evaporate faster?

Heat it faster. I'm not sure which, but Salt either makes it boil/evaporate faster or slower...


Why does heating cause a liquid to evaporate faster?

The most basic definition of heat is an increased movement at the molecular level - which is exactly what you are seeing.


That a larger volume of liquid will always evaporate faster than a smaller volume?

evaporation speed is determined by temperature, humidity and exposed surface area


What point does liquid evaporate quickest?

Lower the pressure and higher the temperature, faster is the evaporation. Therefore, in vacuum and at the temperature just below decomposition point of the substance, its evaporation shall be fastest.

At what Temperature does gasoline evaporate?

In theory, any liquid will evaporate to some extent at any normal Temperature. Evaporation rate for any fluid is, for all practical purposes, determined by only two factors ... the Vapor Pressure of the fluid at the ambient Temperature, and the Degree of Saturation of atmosphere into which it is evaporating.In short, the Higher the Temperature of the Gasoline, the faster it will evaporate from an open container.


Which liquid will evaporate faster water or vinegar?

Does the artificial coloring of water effect its evaporation rate?

Yes, but the dye causing the coulour will probably not evaporate, leaving a (liquid or solid depending on the dye) residue. This will evaporate as well when it is heated sufficiently, although a lot of dyes would probably combust before this temperature is reached.
