Many droplets, each very small in size, combine to form one raindrop. These small droplets join together through a process called coalescence, where they collide and merge into larger drops that eventually fall to the ground as rain.

How much condensation does it take to form 1 rain drop?

It takes millions of water vapor droplets to come together in a cloud to form one raindrop. These droplets condense and collide with each other, growing in size until they are heavy enough to fall as rain.


How is rainfall formed?

Water vapor (that has evaporated) condenses into cloud droplets in the cooler atmosphere. Many of these droplets form clouds. When enough water molecules with the clouds form together, they become too heavy for the upward flowing air to keep them in the cloud. The droplets then fall back down to earth as precipitation, rain being the most common form.


Is raindrop one or two words?

"Raindrop" is one word.


How many snow flakes does one raindrop make?

One raindrop can potentially be formed by the melting of thousands of snowflakes. The exact number of snowflakes making up a raindrop may vary depending on the size of the snowflakes and environmental conditions.


How many droplets of water are there in one drop of water?

In the world of science, there are 20 drops of water in a milliliter. If you consider a drop to be what comes out of, say, a pipette, the size of that drop may vary. So does the definition of a drop: see the discussion at link below. The most common usage for a "drop" would be the metric drop, which is .05 ml. The older English usage of minim is slightly larger than the metric drop, but that usage is archaic. A liter does equal ~2.11 pints, so there are 1000/2.1133764 ml in a pint, which = 473.17 ml per pint. At 20 drops per ml, that means that there are 9463.5 drops in a pint.


For precipitation to form cloud droplets must grow in volume by roughly?

one million times


Clouds form when water droplets start growing on one of these?

Clouds form when water droplets condense around tiny particles called cloud condensation nuclei, which can be dust, pollution, or salt crystals in the atmosphere. These particles provide a surface for water vapor to gather and form droplets, eventually leading to the formation of clouds.


What is one process that causes clouds to form in this rising air?

One process that causes clouds to form in rising air is condensation. As the air rises and cools, it reaches its dew point temperature at which water vapor in the air starts to condense into tiny water droplets. These droplets gather together to form clouds.


What type of bonds enable water to form droplets?

Hydrogen bonds enable water molecules to form droplets due to the attraction between the partially positive hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the partially negative oxygen atom of another water molecule. This attraction leads to cohesion, allowing water molecules to stick together and form droplets.


If you were a raindrop falling from the sky what would you do?

i would aim for some one


What is it called when water is removed to bond into one larger one?

This process is called coalescence, where smaller water droplets combine to form larger ones. This often occurs in clouds when tiny water droplets come together to form larger raindrops due to gravity pulling them down.


How many droplets make a snowflake?

A snowflake is made up of many individual ice crystals or droplets that combine and stick together as they fall through the atmosphere. The exact number of droplets can vary, but generally, each snowflake is estimated to contain thousands to millions of ice crystals.
