The gaseous state of water is invisible and is called water vapor.
However, steam is not a gas: it is tiny droplets of liquid water. If you look at a tea kettle that is boiling, you will see a jet of steam coming from the spout. If you look closer at the spout, you will see that the first inch or two of the jet coming out is invisible. This is the water vapor, which then cools slightly as it reaches the ambient air and condenses into the very fine (and very hot) liquid water droplets of steam.

∙ 14y agoWell, water has three common forms:
- frozen form
- liquid form
- gas form
The "room temperature" form of water would be when it is liquid and called "water"
The heated form of water would be when it is gaseous and it is called "steam"

The question needs some proof-reading. Please drop by and post it again when you've imparted it with some meaning.
Is argon in the gaseous state?
yes bcz Ar belongs to 18th group
If water is H2O what is ice?
Water, ice and steam, all are H2O but are different states of water. Water-liquid state Ice- solid state Steam- Gaseous state
When water is heated and evaporates you call it steam In this state H2O is a?
When water is in the vapour form of steam, it is in a gaseous state.
What does h20 represent?
H2O represents the molecular formula of water (liquid state), ice (solid state) or water vapour (gaseous state).
What substance is Steam coming from a pan of boiling water?
Steam is water in a gaseous state. Water is a compound (H2O).
What change of state occurs on the underside of a glass with condensation?
The change is from gas to liquid: H2O in the gaseous form condenses into the liquid we know as water.
What is the chemical formula of steam?
Steam is the gaseous state of water which chemically known as H2O, which is two parts Hydrogen and one part Oxygen.
Are snow ice and steam all H2O?
yes. Snow and Ice = water (H2O) in solid form. Steam = water (H2O) in gaseous form.
Why is HCl predominantly covalent in gaseous state but is ionic in aqueous solution?
HCl is a polar covalent compound. When it is dissolved in Polar solvent H2O, it is ionized into its constituent ions H+ & Cl-. But when it is present gaseous form then it remains as Covalent compound HCl.
What is the liquid form of ice?
Ice is a generic term for the solid state of substances that are normally liquid or gaseous in nature. Ice made from water has the chemical formula of H2O.
The gaseous phase of water is called?
Water cannot exist in gaseous state - water vapour is small droplets of water suspended in air, not water as a gas
What kind of gas is water vapor?
Water vapor is the gaseous form of water formed by evaporation of water. It is mainly derived as the gaseous form of H2O.
What does gaseous mean?
In its gas state. For example, Hydrogen at room temperature exits in its gaseous state.
