What are drops of water on the outside of a glass called?
Condensation
What is example condenstation?
When you have a glass of cold water from the fridge that you take outside, because it's hotter outside, little drops of water will form on the glass.
When drops of water on the outside of the glass dry off what is happening?
What happening is the water droplets have evaporated.
When you put ice cubes in juice drops of liquid seem to appear on the outside of the glass what 's this process called?
It's called "condensation"...The glass gets colder than the dewpoint temperature of the air (temperature at which saturation occurs and water vapor turns into liquid water) and therefore water drops form on the cold glass.
How does drops of water get on a cold glass?
Its condensation
Can condensation be reversible?
Yes it can. Prove this to yourself by filling glass with ice and water. Water from the air condenses on the outside. Empty the glass and put it back down without wiping the outside (drops still in place) As the glass returns to room temperature the condensed water evaporates back into the air. Evaporation is the opposite of condensation.
Is drops of water that collects on the outside of a iced tea glass on a hot day chemical or physical reaction?
its a physical reaction, called condensation
Why do drops of water appear on a cold glass of water?

Why does water drops form on a cold glass?
condensation
Is on a hot day drops of water collect on the outside of a glass holding iced tea a physical or chemical change?
Drops of water collecting on the outside of a glass holding iced tea is a physical change not a chemical change. It is simply atmospheric moisture condensing on the cold glass. Condensation is a physical process.
What is the water on the outside of a glass water called?
The water that forms on the outside of a glass of [ice] water is called condensation. It occurs because the surface of the glass is colder than the air surrounding the glass, which causes the water vapor in the air to cool and condense into a liquid on the outside of the glass.
Ice water placed in a dry glass on a warm summer day will cause the water to appear on the outside of the glass.What is the process that forms water on the outside of the glass?
The process is called condensation, the ice water touching the glass causes the glass to cool and which causes the water vapour in the air to condense on the outside of the glass.
