Which of the following is NOT a main factor affecting the rate of evaporation?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
- The rate of evaporation depends primarily on factors such as surface area, temperature, wind speed, and humidity. Larger surface area and stronger winds increase evaporation, while higher humidity decreases it. Buoyancy is the property of an object in a liquid that relates to its floating or sinking, and is not directly related to evaporation.
Therefore, the correct answer is buoyancy.
