clouds are very, very tiny droplets of water in liquid form. The droplets are small enough for the air molecules bouncing around to keep them suspended. When enough tiny droplets combine, the droplet weight is enough to cause them to fall, making rain.

How do you know that clouds aren't just composed of water vapor?
Actually, clouds aren't even water vapor! Water vapor is invisible, and clouds aren't invisible. Clouds are in the liquid form of water, believe it or not. There may be water in solid form if ice is present in the cloud, but otherwise, clouds are fully liquid water.
Water vapor is water in the form of a?
Water vapor is water in the form of a gas.
How did condensed water vapor form the oceans?
It condensed water vapor to form the oceans by the Earth's vapor into the water.
What causes the clouds to form in the atmosphere?
Clouds are possibly the most interesting (and beautiful) of all weather phenomena. While there is a wide variety of cloud shapes and sizes, they are all made of the same thing: condensed water or ice. The air in the cloud has been cooled (almost always because it is rising) and it can no longer hold all of thewater vapor it contains. Some of that (invisible) water vapor condenses to form (visible) cloud droplets or ice crystals.
What is water vapor is?
Water vapor is simply water in the form of a gas. Liquid water turns into water vapor through a process called evaporation.
What does water vapor in the air form?
a cloud
What forms a cloud?
water droplets and vapor form them
What is this form in the sky when water vapor condenses into water droplets?
That describes a cloud.
How does water vapor becomes a cloud?
usually it is combined with CO2 and when it does it will mix up and it ill form a cloud.
What does water vapor collect around to form a cloud?
dust and other particles
How are rain and water vapor different?
Water vapor is totally invisible. If you see a cloud, fog, or mist, these are all liquid water, not water vapor.Water vapor is extremely important to the weather and climate. Without it, there would be no clouds or rain or snow, since all of these require water vapor in order to form. All of the water vapor that evaporates from the surface of the Earth eventually returns as precipitation - rain or snow.When liquid water is evaporated to form water vapor, heat is absorbed. This helps to cool the surface of the Earth. This "latent heat of condensation" is released again when the water vapor condenses to form cloud water. This source of heat helps drive the updrafts in clouds and precipitation systems, which then causes even more water vapor to condense into cloud, and more cloud water and ice to form precipitation.
What are some examples of water as gas?
Steam (in all its uses), water vapor (as in humidity).
Clouds form when water vapor in the air?
movement of water ocean to cloud and return from cloud to ocean.
What happens after water vapor?
the water vapor would rise up in the sky and then it will become cool, then it will form a cloud
What change of state is water vapor cools and comes together to form a cloud?
condensation
3 ingredients needed t form a cloud?
Water vapor particles and condensation
How thunderstorms develops?
A thunderstorm develops when air that contains water vapor rises and forms a cloud. Then the water vapor condenses to form precipitation or rain.
