Liquefaction is a change to a liquid from either a solid or a gas; whereas condensation is a change only from gas to liquid. Liquefaction takes place at very low temperatures(eg-Air is liquefied at -200degrees c) whereas condensation does not need such low temperatures, it occurs when water vapor changes to droplets of water on a glass of water taken out of a fridge.

What is the difference between condensation nuclei and freezing nuclei?
Condensation Nuclei's a microscopic particle of material such as salt and smoke around which a water droplet can begin to form; a freezing nucleus is a microscopic particle of clay, dust or smoke around which an ice crystal may form in a cloud.
Explain the relationship between condensation and dew point?
Condensation and dew point have a great relationship. Condensation is what happens when dew point temperatures have been reached in an environment.
What are the similarities between water droplets and mist?
both are caused by condensation
Why does liquefaction cause so much damage?
liquefaction can cause builings to sink since it makes Earth's surface act like a liquid. It can harm people and other stuff too
Why do water droplets form on the inner wall of a covered cup of hot water?
Because it's mixing between either water vapour and condensation or steam and condensation(most likely)
What is the difference between liquefaction and condensation?
liquefaction-change from solid to liquid state condensation-change from gas to liquid-just opposite of evaporation
What is difference between liquifaction and condensation?
Condensation is the change from the gas to liquid . Liquefaction (melting) is the change from solid to liquid.
What word do you use to describe a gas changing back into a liquid?
Condensing (or condensation or condense), I hope this helps.
A change in state from a gas to a liquid?
If at "normal" temperatures, it is called condensation. If at extremely cold temperatures, it is called liquefaction.
What is the temperature that gas turns into liquid?
This temperature is called condensation or liquefaction point.
What are the phase change names for a gas to a liquid?
This change is called condensation or liquefaction.
What term or word is used to describe the process of water vapor changing back to a liquid?
Water vapour condenses to liquid water. The process is condensation.
What is the difference between condensation of water vapour and condensation of soft drinks after they evaporate?
the only difference there is that the soft drink condensation has a few additives in it. other than that there is no difference.
What is the process called when a liquid turns into a gas?
the process is called liquefaction Edit: Another is called condensation.
What is a synonym for condensation?
condensate, crystallization, deliquescence, dew, distillation, liquefaction, precipitate, precipitation, rainfall
What is the difference between film and dropwise condensation?
The rate of heat transfer in dropwise condensation is more than film type condensation.
How could you change a gas to a liquid?
Lowering the temperature until the change of phase is occurring (condensation, liquefaction).
