Question

Predict if rates of evaporation are higher than rates of condensation over a warm body of water. Explain your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

When water temperature increases (right), the rate of evaporation also increases. In turn, the amount of water vapor in the "air space" above the water increases. ... But, with increased evaporation, more water molecules exist in the air above the water, which in turn increases the condensation rate.
