the amount of water vapor depends in volume temperature and pressure.

Since you can never keep any of them constant forever, then the amount of water vapor would have to change to "balance" out the system (the conservation of energy or stuff like that). This could be done by precipitation or condensation, both of which help to regulate the right amount of water vapor.

What is the name of the process of liquid water changing into water vapor de to heating?

The process of liquid water changing into water vapor due to heating is called evaporation. During evaporation, molecules at the surface of the liquid gain enough energy to escape into the air as vapor.


How The procss of liquid ater changing into water vapor and entering the atmosphere is called?

The process of liquid water changing into water vapor and entering the atmosphere is called evaporation. This occurs when water molecules gain enough energy to break free from the liquid surface and rise into the air. Once in the atmosphere, the water vapor can contribute to the formation of clouds and precipitation.


What is responsible for changing liquid water to water vapor?

The process responsible for changing liquid water to water vapor is called evaporation. It occurs when heat energy is transferred to the liquid water, causing the water molecules to gain enough kinetic energy to overcome the attractive forces holding them in the liquid state, and turn into water vapor.


The process of water vapor changing into a liquid is called?

When water vapor in the air becomes liquid, it's called condensation. Many people see condensation when carrying a cold glass outside on a hot day. The condensation process creates clouds in the atmosphere.


Why is condensation the opposite of evaporation?

Condensation occurs when water vapor cools and changes back into liquid form, while evaporation happens when liquid water is heated and changes into water vapor. Essentially, condensation is the process of water vapor turning into liquid, while evaporation is the process of liquid turning into vapor.
