Which of the following can increase the rate of evaporation?
a. cooling a liquid
b. heating a liquid
c. freezing a liquid
d. lowering the vapor pressure of a liquid

Option (B)

Explanation:

The process of evaporation refers to the changing of the state of water from liquid to gaseous state. This process takes place due to the increasing heat (temperature), where the water molecules are heated up so high that it starts moving here and there randomly and also vibrates at an extremely faster rate, as a result of which these molecules are escaped into the atmosphere in the form of water vapor.

Evaporation is one of the major processes that occur in the water cycle and heating liquid increases the rate of evaporation.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).
