What causes the water vapor to lose its energy?
When it clings to a nearby cold glass, water vapor loses it's energy and turns into tiny water droplets on the outside of the cold glass. This is called condensation. You may have noticed it before. If not, next time you have a cold glass of water or pop, wait for a little bit, then look at the outside of the glass.
Why didn't the same thing happen to the glass filled with warm water?
Water droplets form when the water vapor cools. The cooling causes it to condense into water. A warm glass does not cause cooling or condensation, so no water droplets.
Why does a glass tumbler containing ice-cool drink show droplets of water on its outer surface?
As the liquid inside the glass tumbler is cold it condenses the water vapour in the atmosphere. This explains why tiny droplets of water are found on the outer surface of the glass tumbler.
A glass of cold milk sometimes forms a coat of water on the outside of the glass (Often referred to as 'sweat'). How does most of the water get there?
if you have ice in it the ice will melt and get out
What occurs when water droplets form on the outside of your iced tea glass on a hot summer day?
the cold glass cools the air in contact with the glass to the point that it can no longer hold as much water vapor as is present. This makes water condense on the outside of the glass. or more formally The vapor pressure of water at the temperature of the glass is less than the partial pressure of water vapor in the surrounding air causing condensation.
What do the water droplets on a glass indicate about the temperatures inside and outside the terrarium?
the water droplets indicate that the air is cooler on one side of the glass. If the droplets are inside, then the outside is cooler. If the droplets are outside, it means the inside is cooler.
Would droplets of water form on the outside of a glass cup?
yes.
When water droplets on the outside of a cold glass of iced tea this is an example of?
Condensation.
Is the droplets of water outside the glass of a cold water a co2?
No…Co2 is carbon dioxide, what you exhale.
When water droplets appears on the outside of a glass it is called?
Condensation put to a lower level

When water droplets appear on the outside of a cold glass of iced tea this is an example of .?
Answer this question… When water droplets appear on the outside of a cold glass of iced tea, this is an example of _____.
What are the water droplets outside of a glass is?
The water droplets are the result of the humidity in the air colling down and condensing on the outside of the glass. When water evaporates it turns into water vapor or steam we call the amount of water vapor in the air humidity. condensation is the reverse of evaporation and is also responsible for rain.
How can water droplets form without rain?
Fog and dew also consist of water droplets. You will also notice water condensing on the outside of a glass of a cold beverage.
