Yes, the density of water changes when it is converted into steam because the molecules spread out and the volume expands to fill its container while the mass of the water remains the same. Since the volume increases and the mass remains constant the density greatly decreases.

Occurs when water vapor changes to liquid water?

Its a change in energy primarily. Water vapor loses energy and then becomes liquid. The energy it loses generally is heat. For example, Put water vapor in a sealed container in a freezer, it will change from vapor to liquid, then liquid to solid as it loses energy in the form of heat

What is the Change of state of condensation?

There is water vapor in the air, and that is a gas. The water vapor condenses on an object. The water vapor comes together and forms water droplets. These water droplets are now a liquid. This is condensation. So, to answer your question, gas becomes liquid.


What do gases change into?

Depends. Water vapor for example is a gas. When water vapor condenses in the atmosphere, it comes back as precipitation (rain, liquid). When liquid becomes too hot, it evaporates into gas. When gas becomes too hat, it becomes plasma. When liquid becomes too cold, it becomes a solid.

What is the density of water vapor?

The density of water vapor can vary depending on temperature and pressure. At standard temperature and pressure (STP), the density of water vapor is approximately 0.804 grams per liter (g/L). However, as temperature increases or pressure decreases, the density of water vapor decreases.
