Worked Solution

Step 1: Factors affecting evaporation are temperature, surface area, humidity, and wind. Step 2: The total volume of water does not change the speed at which the surface molecules escape. Step 3: Therefore, adding more water has no effect on the rate.

Correct answer: Adding more water to the container
