It condenses into a cloud up in the atmosphere and then gets precipitated back.
We would be talking about the water cycle here. In this question we would be talking about the step called Evaporation. In the cloud, it condenses, that would be the step Condensation. Then when the cloud is full of condensed water, it falls back to the ground as precipitation, not in the same place of course!
Water vapor
When water vapor rises high in the atmosphere and cools, it condenses into tiny water droplets or ice crystals. This can happen because the air at higher altitudes is colder, causing the water vapor to reach its dew point temperature and change from a gas to a liquid or solid form.
It becomes condensation.The water vapor turns into a liquid
It condenses into liquid.
it will precipitate
it condenses
it is condensation
Water vapor cools as it rises because of adiabatic cooling, where air pressure decreases with altitude, causing the air to expand and cool. This cooling of water vapor can lead to condensation and cloud formation.
When water rises into the air, it is called evaporation. Evaporation occurs when liquid water changes into water vapor due to heat energy from the sun.
The answer to the blank in the phrase "liquid water on Earth's surface _____ water vapor rises into the atmosphere" is "evaporates." When liquid water evaporates, it transforms into water vapor, which then rises into the atmosphere. This process is a key component of the water cycle, contributing to weather patterns and climate regulation.
When water heats up, it rises as vapor and as temperature drops at high altitudes, the vapor condenses and becomes clouds. With time, the condensed water soon liquidifies and becomes rain.
evaporation then condensation
