Why is Earth's water vapor not found in low places only as Earth's liquid water is?
Water is H2O, so that is 18 Atomic Mass units or basically 18 grams per mole. Air is more like 28 grams per mole. So, water vapor is lighter than air.
By water vapor, we normally mean the gas form of water. As stated above, this is lighter than air, though it mixes with air and thus does not "rise to the top" except in a very mild and slow manner.
Water vapor merely mixes with air and if the air cools enough that the water condenses back to droplets of water, that is a cloud. Water droplets are heavier than air and the fall. We call that rain.
What else can I help you with?
Which of these are fissures through which water and water vapor escape from the Earths surface?
Fumaroles are fissures through which water and water vapor escape from the Earth's surface.
What role do evaporation and condensation play in the water cycle?
Evaporation is the changing of liquid water to water vapor.Condensation is when air cools and water vapor turns into liquid.
What is the term for the lowest temperature at which a liquid produces enough vapor to sustain a continuous fire?
flash point
How does water vapor gets into air?
Water vapor is the invisible gaseous form of water. It is part of the air and moves freely in the air.In the higher altitudes as it cools, it may condense out of the air and become liquid water. If the droplets are small they will hang in a fog and form a cloud. If they clump together into bigger drops, they will fall as rain.
Where is water found in all four spheres of the earth?
in hydrosphere, it is found in the air and or wherever there is water. In the lithosphere, there really, isn't any water in the arenosphere, I'm not sure, and the others, no water to be found unless there is water vapor in atmosphere...
What is the answer for the process by water on earths surface changes from liquid to water vapor?
transpiration,i think
Why is the water on the earth sometimes found as a solid or a liquid?
It is also found as a gas. This is because Earth orbits its star at a distance where the heat form the star is enough for water to be present in the liquid form. Extremes on the planet then allow for water to be solid and vapor in places.
What is the name of the three states or forms of water found on earth?
The three states or forms of water found on Earth are solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (water vapor).
What can water be found as?
On Earth, water can be found as vapor, liquid, and ice.
What are the three different forms of water found?
Liquid water, water vapor, and ice.
How is vapor water different from liquid water?
Water vapor is different from liquid water because water vapor is a gas, and liquid water is a liquid.
Is gasoline a liquid or a vapor form?
Gasoline is a liquid, gas is a vapor.
When alchohol and mercury boil they both change from a liquid to what?
They change from a liquid to a vapor (gas).
What is the change a vapor to a liquid?
The change from a vapor to a liquid is called condensation. This occurs when vapor cools down and loses energy, transforming into liquid droplets.
What forms of water are found on earth or on the moon?
The vapor form, the liquid form, and the solid form are.
How is water vapor diffrent from liquid water?
Water Vapor is technically a gas and Liquid water is obviously a liquid.
The conversion of a liquid to a vapor when the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure?
its boiling
