If enough energy is taken away from water vapour, it will condense to form water (in liquid form). This is because a gaseous state requires more energy than a liquid state (and a liquid state requires more energy than a solid state).

Is energy transferred when water boils?
Yes, as water boils the temperature of the boiling water no longer rises. The energy from the heat source that is boiling the water is however STILL there. What happens is that this energy is taken away by the water vapor leaving the boiling water surface. This energy is called "LATENT HEAT". The latent heat is given up again when the water vapor condenses back to liquid water so the water vapor caries the heat from one place to another. It is this energy that powers Hurricanes.
When water vapor loses energy what phase change occurs?
When water vapor loses energy it "turns" into a liquid
What happens to the energy in the water vapor as it becomes a cloud?
it becomes evaporation and dust particules in the sky to develope new clouds
How and why does typhoons gain energy from warm ocean water?
When ocean water is warm, a lot of water vapor evaporates from it. If air laden with that water vapor rises, as it often does it will cool and the water vapor will condense, which releases energy.
When it's humid the air holds a lot of water vapor but when it's cold what happens to the water vapor?
nothing "happens" 2 the water vapor. the vast amount of water vapor in the air on a humid day as exactly bcoz its so hot. the water is drawn out of sources which holds it. but when its cold that water isn't drawn out
What happens to water vapor when heat energy is reduced?
It condenses forming water.
What happens when water vapor it gain energy?
It becomes hotter vapour.
What happens when water changes from a solid to a liquid to a vapor?
loses energy

What causes water to condensates?
Kinetic energy
What happens to water vapor when it is cooled?
The water vapor turns into liquid water.
What happens when water vapor loses energy?
It can begin to form liquid droplets through the process of condensation.
What happens to the the energy from the sun when it changes liquid water into water vapor?
Evaporation
When water vapor loses energy what phase change occurs?
When water vapor loses energy it "turns" into a liquid
What happens to the molecules of water vapor when the temperature of a gas cools to 1000 degrees Celsius?
The water vapor then condenses and becomes a liquid again.
What happens to the energy in the water vapor as it becomes a cloud?
it becomes evaporation and dust particules in the sky to develope new clouds
