In general, the rate of evaporation of liquid increases with increase in temperature and increases with increase in surface area of the liquid exposed to air. The rate of evaporation decreases with increasing of the intermolecular forces. The bigger intermolecular forces , the harder the molecules can escape from the liquid and become gas.
