Whi many are, many are not (iodine vapour is quite easily seen, for example, where water vapour is not).

What is the different between vapour and steam?
If you look carefully at a boiling kettle, water vapour is the white vapour you can see. Steam is actually the invisible short section between the spout of the kettle and the start of the water vapour.
What is vapour?
a pure gas of oxygen and hydrogen The water cycle is driven by the Sun's energy. When water evaporates, it turns into the invisible gas called water vapour.
Why is radar not useful in tracking clouds?
Clouds are formed from water vapour - which is virtually invisible to radar.
Are clouds a liquid or gas or both?
Clouds are made up of very small droplets of water. Water vapour is invisible, a water vapour cloud could not be seen.
What does vapour mean?
Water vapor is invisible water (kind of like mist) that floats around in the air.
What is the difference between water vapour and steam?
the difference is that water vapour is just one particle that joins together with more and more to form steam
What is natural process of changing water from water vapor is called?
'When liquid water changes to an invisible gas it is called evaporation. The water is turned into water VAPOUR. You can remember this by remembering the word vapour in eVAPOURation.
What does water vapour means?

Why do you have white puffs usually while breathing in cold morning?
When you breath out, you breath out some water vapour. This is normally invisible, but cold air cannot hold as much water vapour compared with warm. This causes some of the water vapour to condense in mid air in front of you, forming 'the cloud'!
What is the difference between watervapor and steam?
Water vapour is water in it's gas form. It's invisible, 'dissolved' into the air. Steam is where the hot water vapour has condensed out of the air, it's a lot of small water droplets mixed in with the air.
Why are clouds not evaporated if they are water vapour?
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.
When you see steam fog or clouds you are seeing water in which state?
You are seeing it in its liquid state (as small drops of liquid). The vapour phase is totally invisible/transparent.
