It's condensation. I answered evaporation on a quiz and it turned out to be Condensation.
dew point
Condensation
If dew point and the air temperature are the same, condensation may occur but all the given conditions guarantee is that any liquid water that might be present will be in equilibrium with the moisture in the air so any evaporation that might occur will be matched with some condensation somewhere and any condensation that might occur would have to be matched by some evaporation elsewhere.
At temperatures below the dew point there is less evaporation than condensation. Drops and droplets condense and grow. At temperatures above the dew point there is more evaporation than condensation, drops and droplets evaporate.
the realationship between condensation and dew point is that condensation occurs when it reaches the dew point.
dew drops are form when there is a fall in the temperature and condensation takes place faster than the evaporation thus changing gas into liquid droplet hence dew drops does not fall from clouds.
Evaporation and Condensation are based upon the energy in the water molecules. If the water temperature (vapor) is above the surface temperature, it will evaporate. If the water temperature (vapor) is below the surface temperature it will condense. Evaporation and condensation are happening at the same time. We add the term "Net" at the beginning to show which is happening at a greater rate. The temperature at which there is net condensation is referred to as dew point.
Water vapour falls below the dew point (and comes out of solution in air).
Changing a liquid to gas is called evaporation.
Condensation and dew point have a great relationship. Condensation is what happens when dew point temperatures have been reached in an environment.
Dew forms during condensation.
