Actually when steam condenses it is loosing heat. As steam rises it cools and falls back down with gravity. I.E. a steam boiler heat system Boils water to till it turns into a gaseous mixture of water droplets and rises to a radiator to heat. As the radiator absorbs the heat from the steam It condenses and returns to the boiler through the same riser pipe to the boiler.
When steam (water vapor) comes in contact with a cold mirror, it loses heat energy to the mirror. As a result, the water vapor particles slow down and come closer together, transitioning into liquid water droplets. This process is called condensation, where the gas phase (water vapor) turns into the liquid phase (water droplets) due to the loss of thermal energy.
It really depends on the temperature of the steam and temperature of the cold surface. 250 degree steam hitting a 50 or 60 degree surface will just turn back into water and droplets can be seen almost immediately. 1000+ degree steam hitting a frozen surface may cause a loud bang and eventually turn back into water.
Yes, particles in steam collide with each other due to their high kinetic energy and constant random motion. These collisions contribute to the pressure and temperature of the steam.
When water is boiled, it evaporates and forms steam. When the steam comes into contact with a cooler lid, it condenses back into liquid water droplets due to the drop in temperature. This is similar to how dew forms on cool surfaces in the morning.
This happens because the liquid particles of the water react to the heat. The particles start to move and bounce about rapidly, causing the water to condense and turn to vapour(which is steam). This is a great example of the chemical reaction of liquid->gas.
When steam is cooled, its particles lose energy and slow down. As a result, the steam condenses back into water vapor or liquid water. The particles move closer together due to the decrease in thermal energy.
When steam condenses onto a cold mirror, the water vapor in the steam loses energy to the cold surface of the mirror. This causes the water vapor to change phase from gas to liquid, forming water droplets on the mirror's surface.

Particle Movement decreases.
When steam is cooled, it condenses back into liquid water. This is the opposite process of water evaporating into steam when heated. Cooling steam releases the latent heat energy it acquired during evaporation.
When water vapor condenses around dust particles a cloud is formed
When steam condenses to water, it releases the latent heat it absorbed during the phase change from water to steam. This heat energy is transferred to the surroundings, leading to a temperature decrease in the steam as it turns into water. This energy release helps to warm the environment around the condensed water.
They turn into steam and rise to the ceiling.
The steam condenses to form water droplets on the cooler surface.
When steam condenses, it typically enters the condensate system first. From there, it may be collected and redirected back into the boiler for reuse in the steam generation process.
It condenses and it becomes liquid
It condenses and turns into vapour which is known as "steam".
