Your breath forms a cloud on a cold day because your breath is warmer than the air, so it creates fog.

When a persons breath forms a cloud on a cold day what is happening?

Your breath contains moisture. On a cold day the warm moisture in your exhaled breath enters the cold air outside your body and forms a "fog" made of small droplets of water.


What would you have to do to warm moist air to make a cloud?

Cool it. The moisture in the air condenses to form a cloud when it is cooled. Eventually the moisture droplets are big enough to start to precipitate to form rain. You see your cloud of breath when you walk outside on a cold day and the moisture in your breath condenses to form a visible cloud.


Why is my breath cold when I exhale on a cold day?

When you exhale on a cold day, your breath appears cold because the warm air from your lungs meets the cold air outside, causing the water vapor in your breath to condense into tiny droplets, creating a visible mist.


What product respriation that can be seen in a person's breath on really cold day?

That is the water vapor from our breath, that condenses to water droplets. Water vapor by itself is invisible - it becomes visible when it forms droplets.


Why does water vapor show up in exhaled air on a cold day?

When you exhale on a cold day, the warm air from your lungs meets the cold air outside, causing the moisture in your breath (primarily water vapor) to condense into tiny droplets that form a visible cloud or mist. This mist is essentially tiny water droplets that become visible in the colder temperature.


Why do you see breath on cold day?

The warm water vapour in your breath condenses into water droplets when it hits the cold air.


What do you see when you see your breath on cold day?

carbon dioxide as a gas


Can your breath becoming visible on a cold day be a chemical change?

No, your breath becoming visible on a cold day is a physical change, not a chemical change. It simply involves the condensation of water vapor in your breath due to the colder temperatures, causing it to appear as a mist. The chemical composition of your breath remains the same.


How will you show that your breath contains moisture?

By the saliva in your mouth? Look at your breath on a cold day outside. Breathe on a mirror and watch it fog.


When you are walking on a cold day what is some of the energy in your body being used?

My energy to breath:)


On what kind of day would it be possible to create frozen dragon's breath?

You can't create dragons breath unless you're a dragon.


Why do we see clouds along a cold front?

Warm air can hold more moisture than cold air. On a cold winter morning, the moisture in our breath condenses and we see a small cloud (fog) coming out of our mouth and nose because the cold air isn't able to hold as much moisture as the warm air can. Clouds are composed of very tiny droplets of water or ice crystals. When a a leading edge of cold air (a cold front) travels through an area that is warmer, some of the moisture in the warm air condenses and forms a cloud, just like the fog coming out of our mouth on a cold day. A cold front often brings rain with it because of the condensation process that occurs. The many small particles of moisture that make up the cloud can merge into larger droplets and eventually fall to the ground as rain. Think of the droplets of water you see when you leave a cold can of soda pop sitting on the table.
