Why is there a limit on the amount of water vapor the air can hold?
It takes a lot of energy to turn water into water vapor. The amount of energy that the water gains to turn into water vapor begins to be transferred into the surrounding air. If the air is willing to take on more energy the water vapor condenses quicker. This is why hot air will hold more water vapor than cold air.
What is water vapor called when it cools?
air.
Is there a difference between an air bubble and a water vapor bubble?
Water vapor is the gaseous phase of water. Anything that is a gas can is "air." Water vapor consists of hydrogen and oxygen, "air" that we breathe contains water vapor (which you are currently exhaling due to cellular respiration) among other elements, mainly nitrogen.
When it's humid the air holds a lot of water vapor but when it's cold what happens to the water vapor?
nothing "happens" 2 the water vapor. the vast amount of water vapor in the air on a humid day as exactly bcoz its so hot. the water is drawn out of sources which holds it. but when its cold that water isn't drawn out
What is the measure of the actual amount of water vapor in the air called?
This is called the absolute humidity, usually expressed in grams of water vapor per kilogram of air, but also by water vapor per unit volume of air (e.g. grams per cubic meter).
How do particles interact with water vapor in the air?
["
How do these particles interact with water vapor in the air?
The particles cause water vapor to evaporate
What are the variable components of air?
water vapor, ozone and dust paticles.
What is the process of clouds forming when water vapor in the air becomes liquid water?
condensation (the water vapor condenses onto the small dust particles in the air creating clouds)
How do particle interact with vapor in the air?
["
What happens to water vapor when it cools then condenses around dust and salt?
When water vapor condenses around dust particles a cloud is formed
What are particles of dust or salt in air where water vapor condenses on to form clouds?
Condensation Nuclei
When is it possible to see air?
When it contains smoke, dust, volcanic ash, particles of water vapor, and/or soot
Besides water vapor what must be present for a cloud to form?
Solid particles such as dust and water vapors, without either of these, there would be no clouds.
What two objects form a cloud?
Clouds are formed from three things: dust, air, and water. You need dust so the water vapor does not condense and fall to the ground as precipitation.
What three things are needed to form?
The three things needed for cloud formation are water vapor, a low air temperature and pollutants like dust. When these things combine, clouds are formed.
What is water vapor in air?
Water vapor in the air is water in the form of a gas.
