    This document summarizes a chemistry investigatory project on the evaporation of different liquids and the effect of surface area on evaporation rate. The project involved two experiments: 1) Comparing the evaporation rates of water, acetone, and diethyl ether, and finding that diethyl ether evaporates fastest followed by acetone then water due to hydrogen bonding. 2) Studying how evaporation rate of diethyl ether increases with larger surface area by evaporating samples in petri dishes of different diameters and timing evaporation. The project found evaporation was fastest in the largest dish and slowest in the smallest.

    ACKNOWLEDGMENT

    I am greatly thankful for the cooperation and

    help from schoolauthorities and the Chemistry


    lab stafffor the successful completion of
    thisinvestigatory project in the Kendriya
    Vidyalaya's ChemistryLab. Without their help
    and proper guidance my project might not
    have completed.

    Theory
    Evaporation is the process whereby
    atoms or molecules in a liquid state
    gain sufficient energy to enter the
    gaseous state.
    The thermal motion of a molecule
    must be sufficient to overcome the
    surface tension of the liquid in order
    for it to evaporate, that is, its kinetic
    energy must exceed the work function
    of cohesion the surface.
    Evaporation therefore proceeds more
    quickly at higher temperature and in
    liquids with lower surface tension.
    Since only a small proportion of the
    molecules areLocated near the surface
    and are moving in the proper direction
    to escape at any given instant, the rate
    of evaporation is limited. Also, as the
    faster-moving molecules escape, the
    remaining molecules have lower
    average kinetic energy, and the
    temperature of the liquid thus
    decreases.
    If the evaporation takes place in a
    closed vessel, the escaping molecules
    accumulate as a vapor above the
    liquid. Many of the molecules return to
    the liquid, with returning molecules
    becoming more frequent as the density
    and pressure of the vapor increases.
    When the process of escape and return
    reaches equilibrium, the vapor is said

    to be "saturated and no further change


    in either vapor pressure and density or
    liquid temperature will occur.

    Gas has less order than liquid or solid


    matter, and thus the entropy of the
    system is increased, which always
    requires energy input. This means that
    the entropy change for evaporation
    (∆H) is always positive.
    Forced evaporation is a process used
    in the separation of mixtures, in which
    a mixture is heated to drive off the
    more volatile component (e.g. water),
    Leaving behind the dry, less volatile
    component.

    Water molecules are in a constant


    state of evaporation and condensation
    flux near the surface of liquid water.

    If a surface molecule receives enough


    energy, it will leave the liquid and turn
    into vapor pending an allowable vapor
    pressure.
    Under a pressure of 1 ATM, water will
    boil at 100°C.

    Factors Influencing Rate Of


    Evaporation:-

    ? Concentration of other substances in


    the air- If the air is already saturated
    with other substances, it can have a
    lower capacity for the substance
    evaporating.
    ? Temperature of the substance - Ifthe
    substance is hotter, then evaporation
    will be faster.
    ? Flow rate of air-This is in part related
    to the concentration points above. If
    fresh air is moving over the
    substance all the time, then the
    concentration of the substance in the
    air is less likely to go up with time,
    thus encouraging faster evaporation.
    In addition, molecules in motion
    have more energy than those at rest,
    and so the stronger the flow of air,
    the greater the evaporating power of
    the air molecules.
    ? Inter-molecular forces-The
    strongerthe forces keeping the
    molecules together in the liquid or
    solid state the more energy that must
    be input in order to evaporate them.
    Objective Of Project

    In this project, we shall investigate


    various factors that have already been
    discussed such as nature of liquid,
    surface of liquid and temperature and
    find their correlation with the rate of
    evaporation of different liquids.
    Experiment No.1

    Aim:
    To compare the rate of evaporation of
    water, acetone and diethyl ether.

    Materials Required:
    China dish, Pipette, Beaker, Weighing
    balance Measuring flask, Acetone,
    Distilled water, Diethyl ether, Watch
    glass.
    PROCEDURE:
    1. Take three china dishes.
    2. Pipette out 10 ml of each sample.
    3. Dish A-Acetone
    Dish B-Water
    Dish C-Diethyl ether
    4. Record the weights before beginning
    the experiment.
    5. Leave the three dishes undisturbed
    for ½ an hour and wait patiently.
    6. Record the weights of the samples
    after the given time.
    7. Compare the prior and present
    observations.

    Observation Table
    Inference AndConclusion: -

    The rate of evaporation of the given


    three liquids is in order:-
    Diethyl Ether>Acetone>Water

    Reason: -

    Water has extensive hydrogen bonding


    in between oxygen atom of one
    molecule and hydrogen atom of
    another molecule. But this is absent in
    the case of acetone.
    Experiment No.2

    Aim:-To study the effect of surface


    area on the rate of evaporation of
    Diethyl ether.

    Requirements
    Three Petridishes of diameter 2.5 cm,5
    cm, and 10 cm with covers ,10 ml
    pipette and stopwatch.
    Procedure
    1. Clean and dry the petridishes and
    mark them as A, B, C.
    2. Pipette out 10 ml of Diethyl ether in
    each of the petridishes a, band C
    covers them immediately.
    3. Uncover all the three petridishes
    simultaneously
    And start the stopwatch.
    4. Note the time when diethyl ether
    evaporates completely from each
    petridish.
    Observation Table
    Petridish Diameter of Time taken for
    Mark petridish complete
    evaporation

    A 2.5 cm 11min 45sec

    B 5.0 cm 8min 45sec

    C 7.5 cm 6min 30sec


    Result
    It will be observed that maximum
    evaporation occurs in petridish with
    largest diameter followed by smaller
    And the smallest petridish. It is
    therefore, concluded that rate of
    evaporation increases with increase in
    surface area.
