How Does Clear Liquid Affect The Rate Of Evaporation Rates

Decent Essays

This is my research report on my science project. My topic is What Clear liquid affects the rate of evaporation. I chose this topic because I wasn’t able to choose a project I wanted to do. So I looked through the list and saw this topic. Then suddenly I think back to a wet afternoon and very cold a few years ago. That morning I saw a puddle of water and when I came back it was half way drained down. So i thought back to that moment long ago which I still remember. And so not only I needed a project, I also was a little interested into this topic. I was also interested into rates of evaporation when I saw this question. The question i’d be answering is What clear liquid has a faster evaporation rate.
For the independent Variable, we’re changing one of the liquids to something different. We’re changing hydrogen peroxide to Nail Polish remover. we’ll be keeping water, alcohol, …show more content…

We’ll measure how long each liquid evaporates at room temperature. So each liquid won't evaporate faster just because of the temperature. Each liquid has a different evaporation rate. Evaporation occurs when a liquid is sitting in a spot for too long. The evaporation rate of a liquid is affected of what type of liquid it is. And the temperature of what the liquid is sitting in. Such as a puddle sitting in 100 Degrees Fahrenheit. The puddle will evaporate faster because it is in a hot environment. Evaporation can also happen when it's cold. However heat makes the liquid evaporate faster. I did a lot of research, and based on a lot of sites. Some say Nail polish remover evaporates faster than alcohol. While some say Alcohol is faster than nail polish remover. So i’ll say nail polish remover is going to be faster. If i leave nail polish out then it will evaporate the fastest. Because nail polish contains acetone which makes its molecules evaporate faster to
