Clouds are made up of water droplets of varying size, or ice crystals, not water vapour. Water vapour is the evaporite of clouds, and clouds often dissipate, so the water droplets making up the cloud change from visible water droplets to invisible water vapour. The "vapour trails" from aircraft engine exhausts are actually areas of cloud formation as water from burnt fuel condenses in cold air aloft.

What do clouds consist of?
clouds are basically water that has evaporated.
Are clouds made up of liquids or solids?
Type your answer here... clouds are made of liquid(water vapour).
Why water vapour in air plays an important role in heating and cooling of air?
So when they turn into clouds the water vapour condences into tiny droplets of water and it gets bigger and bigger it falls as rain
Why do water from puddles disappear after a few hours?
Heyy, Well the water gets evaporated into the clouds and stay in the clouds until they are filled with water so thats how it starts raining. Or the water sinks into the ground (depending on the type, if it's dirt or cement)
What does the sun have to do with evaporation?
The heat from the Sun, aided by the wind, would evaporate water from the surface of the oceans. The water vapour would rise to form clouds. It is part of the 'Water Cycle'.
What role does cloud play in the water cycle?
the clouds take in the evaporated water and rain or snow which is called precipitation
What does snow become when evaporated?
Water vapour
Do clouds always lead to rain Explain?
Clouds are formed by water vapour evaporated off the oceans by the sun and wind. Not all clouds produce rain, as the droplets in some clouds may not be heavy enough to drop to earth.
What is clouds not made of?
clouds are made of water and water vapour (almost the same thing) ,so anythign that isnt water or water vapour is not made in clouds
What do clouds consist of?
clouds are basically water that has evaporated.
What is the info of the water cycle?
A simplified version of the water cycle is: Water is evaporated by sun and wind from the ocean. The evaporated water forms a vapour that creates the clouds. The clouds rain down on the land (and sea). The rain flows into streams, rivers, and back into the sea. Then the evaporation begins all over again - so continuing the water cycle.
What are clouds actually?
clouds are actually water vapour
How may water from the ocean end up in a field in Utah?
Through the water cycle. Water is evaporated from oceans rivers lakes etc and the water vapour collects together to form clouds. Clouds are blown along by the wind, when the water vapour is cooled it condenses back into liquid water and falls to the ground, which is possibly a field in Utah
What is found in water vapor?
Water vapour is only made of evaporated water
What is the term for when water rises up to form clouds?
evaporation is when water vapour rises up and condensation is when water vapour turns into clouds
What do clouds represent?
when water evapourates, it becomes water vapour and collects in clouds
How does water vapour become rain?
Water from the ocean is evaporated by the sun, The hot water vapor rises and expands because there is less air pressure higher in the sky , then furhter inland, the water condences into clouds and falls down as rain (or precipitaion). Its called the water cycle
