Condensation is the form of water droplets on a solid cooler than the air around it. Precipitation starts off with the condensation of water on smog and dust that goes up in the air to form a cloud. When too much water goes into a cloud water droplets {rain} fall down to the earth. Some droplets are frosted to form snow.

In a general sense, condensation refers to any kind of gas turning into a liquid. In weather cycles, it is when water vapor particles in clouds grow so dense that they stick together and become water droplets. Precipitation is when those droplets fall from the clouds to the ground as rain.
