Condensation usually occurs on a surface that is cooler than the adjacent gas. A substance condenses when the pressure exerted by its vapour exceeds the vapour pressure of its liquid or solid phase at the temperature of the surface where the condensation is to occur. The process causes the release of thermal energy. Condensation occurs on a glass of cold water on a warm, humid day when water vapour in the air condenses to form liquid water on the glass's colder surface. Condensation also accounts for the formation of dew, fog, rain, snow, and clouds.

Is condensation the same as cooling?
No it is not. Condensation does occur on the evaporator in an air conditioning system.
Why does condensation occur when moist air rises?
Condensation may occur when moist air rises because of the different arrangement of water molecules.
When you take a cold can of juice outof the refrigerator on a hot day will condensation or evaporation occur?
Both, but condensation first.
Which sphere does condensation mostly occur?
atmosphere
Which letter represents where vaporization and condensation occur?
nope
Why are condensation and saturation more likely to occur on a cold day than on a warm day?
Saturation and condensation are more likely to occur on a cold day. The temperature in the air is increased by the process of moisture condensation.Ê
What is the first phase change that is most likely to occur as the pressure on nitrogen gas is increased and its temperature is decreased?
Condensation
Does condensation of water vapor occur when air gets warmer?
No. Condensation will occur when they air gets cooler.
How are evaporation and condensation connected to the water cycle in nature?
Condensation occur after evaporation.
Is condensation the same as cooling?
No it is not. Condensation does occur on the evaporator in an air conditioning system.
Does condensation occur on water surfaces?
Condensation may or may not occur on water surfaces. Water vapors cool down and condenses.
Before condensation can occur what must be the relative humidity?
It must be 100% before condensation.
Why does condensation occur when moist air rises?
Condensation may occur when moist air rises because of the different arrangement of water molecules.
When you take a cold can of juice outof the refrigerator on a hot day will condensation or evaporation occur?
Both, but condensation first.
Does condensation precipitation and evaporation occur in the stratosphere?
No
Why does condensation occur in the kitchen?
Because your a woman
