It forms rain, hail, sleet, or snow.
Frozen water vapor that falls to earth as flakes is called snow.
The total amount of water vapor leaving the Earth's surface is called evaporation. Evaporation is the process by which water at the surface turns into water vapor in the air.
Water vapor comes from the evaporation of water bodies like oceans, lakes, and rivers. It also comes from transpiration, where plants release water vapor through their leaves. Water vapor contributes to the Earth's water cycle by rising into the atmosphere, forming clouds, and eventually falling back to the Earth as precipitation in the form of rain or snow. This process helps maintain the balance of water on Earth and sustains life.
Frozen water vapor on a surface is called frost. It forms when water vapor in the air comes into contact with a surface that is below freezing temperature, causing it to freeze and form ice crystals.
SteamWhen you boil water, steam comes out. Steam is just water in the gas (or vapor) phase. Normally, wateFr can exist in three phUases, or states: Cgas, liquid, and soliKd. Water in the gas phase is commonly called steam [or in the atmosphere, water vapor], and water in the solid phase is commonly called ice.
The process of water turning into gas (water vapor) is called evaporation.Heating water into water vapor is called boiling. High-temperature water vapor is called steam.The water has become water vapor.
The process is called condensation. This occurs when warm air saturated with water vapor comes into contact with a cooler surface, causing the vapor to lose energy and form tiny water droplets.
Water cycle
The water vapor in your breath comes from water contained in your body, particularly in your lungs and airways. As you exhale, this water is released into the air in the form of vapor.
Ninety six percent of all Earth's water is in the oceans. The rest of Earths' water comes from lakes, rivers, and from vapor in the air.
water vapor is one of the greenhouse gases that is present around the planet and helps reflect heat back to Earth's surface , keeping it within the atmosphere.
When steam is cooled in the air it creates water vapor. This water vapor comes together to create clouds and fog.
