The phenomenon that causes water to condense on the windows in winter is the same as what causes water to condense on the outside of cold glasses. Because the cold glass of the window (or the cup) absorbs heat, the air around it is slightly colder. Because cold air can hold less water vapour than cold air, water condenses and gathers on the window.

What does the condense mean?
To melt refers to the transformation from solid to liquid (think ice to water) To condense refers to the transformation from gas to liquid (think steam to water)
Why does a cold window steam up when you breathe on it?
When you exhale your breath contains water vapor. When this water vapor comes in contact with the cold window its kinetic energy is imparted to it causing the water vapor to condense forming many small water droplets upon it.
How do you collect evaporated water?
A piece of plastic over a boiling kettle will collect the steam (evaporated water) and it will condense.
How is pure water obtained from sea water in Africa?
they can get the sea water into a chamber then evaporate it and make it go through a pipe then condense it into someing
How does water vapor change to liquid water?
Water vapour is like air so if you condense it (cool it down) then it will turn into water (a liquid). I hope this helped! By: Suzie
Why breathing on to a cold window causes water vapour form your mouth to condense?
Warm air has water vapor. When contacting the cold window pane, the temperature drops below the dew point, causing water VAPOR to condense to LIQUID water.
Why does water condensation occurs on the inside of windows in the winter time?
water vapor in the air touches the cold window and if the temperature of the window is below the dew point, micro-droplets of water will condense on the surface giving the typical "foggy glass" look.Copied from another wiki answers User:Mrsieversahttp://wiki.answers.com/Q/User:Tanvi%20Goel
What is exhaled breath containing water vapor?
Yes, it does. Simply get close to a mirror or cold window and breathe on it and you will see the water vapor condense into water.
If you breathe into a cold car window to water droplet will form into?
Your exhaled, warm, moist breath will condense into droplets of water when in contact with the cold glass.
When you breath onto a cold window and water droplet's appearit is an example of?
Condensation.... The colder temperature of the glass, causes the water vapour in your breath to condense out.
Why water running down the window of the apartment when its winter?
When the humid indoor air hits the cold window condensation occurs i.e, the water vapor in the air turns into water droplets on the window.
When enough heat energy is gained by liquid water the liquid water can?
molecule
When liquid water loses energy it will?
Condense
When you have a shower in winter water often collects at the bottom of the window pane why?
Because it wants to.
Why do we see drops of water on our bathroom mirrors when we take a hot shower?
The warm, moist air coming from the shower will condense to water droplets on contact with a cool mirror or bathroom window.
Why does condensation form on mirrors?
water vapor in the air touches the cold window and if the temperature of the window is below the dew point, micro-droplets of water will condense on the surface giving the typical "foggy glass" look.
