It condenses into a cloud up in the atmosphere and then gets precipitated back.

We would be talking about the water cycle here. In this question we would be talking about the step called Evaporation. In the cloud, it condenses, that would be the step Condensation. Then when the cloud is full of condensed water, it falls back to the ground as precipitation, not in the same place of course!

Cooling slows the molecules down, and when it gets cold enough the molecules stick together to form ice crystals.

Precipitates. I.e., it turns back into a liquid and drops down as rain.

When air rises and cools to its dew point and becomes saturated, it becomes a cloud.

The Sun heats the Earth's water. This warm water turns into a vapor and rises into the atmosphere where it cools off. What happens to this water vapor?

It condenses - to form clouds.


What happens when water vapor rises and it cools off?

Because air is cooler at higher altitudes in the troposphere, water vapor cools as it rises high in the atmosphere and transforms into water droplets by a process called condensation. The water droplets that form make up clouds.


What happened when warm air that is filled with water vapor cooled off?

When warm air filled with water vapor cools off, the water vapor condenses into tiny water droplets or ice crystals. This condensation forms clouds and, if the cooling continues, precipitation such as rain, snow, or hail may occur.


How do you restart your car after vapor lock?

Once it cools off it will start.


Why is their water in the exhaust?

The normal combustion product of gas and oxygen is water (in the form of vapor because it is hot) and carbon dioxide. When you shut off a running car, water vapor in the air condenses to water as the muffler cools down. When you start the car, the exhaust gasses push the now liquid water out the back.


How does evaporation contribute to the development of storms?

When water vapor condenses, it gives off energy or heat. That heat drives hurricanes and all other storms associated with rain. When the Ocean is warm, more water can evaporate. Then when the water vapor rises to the clouds, more water vapor can condense and provide heat, rain, and wind to make the hurricane stronger. If the ocean is cooler, less water can evaporate. Then, less water vapor can condense. The hurricane will get weaker. Very few hurricanes form in winter and those that do are quite weak.


Does land surface cools off more rapidly at night than water does?

Yes. Water is largely opaque to infrared, and so is water vapor. A body of water covers itself with an insulating blanket of water vapor. Land cannot.


What gas is given off during a volcanic eruption?

Water vapor and carbon dioxide. Water vapor is the most abundant.


How does rainfall occur?

When the Earth surface is heated by the sun, the AIR above the surface is also warm. The warm air rises, and when it rises it cools down. Then it condenses and form clouds. And then it rains. (If the air rises very quickly cumulonimbus clouds can form) So the simple answer, Convectional Rainfall: Water forces to rise by heat.


What are the major sources for water vapor?

Evaporation off large bodies of water.


What are clouds and for made off?

Clouds are made out of water vapor.


What do the Trees and other plants give off water vapor through the process of?

Trees and other plants give off water vapor through their aerial parts (stomata) during a process called transpiration.
