What are some examples of condensation?

Answer 1

The formation of clouds by tiny suspended water droplets is a basic one.

Other water-based condensation effects include:

• the visible cloud above a boiling tea kettle
• the drops of water that form on a glass of iced tea or other beverages
• your breath when exhaled into cold air or on a mirror
• the water removed from interior air by an air conditioner

For other liquids than water:

• collection of alcohol and water in a distillation still
• sulfuric acid rain high in the clouds of Venus
• fractional separation of petroleum (gasoline, kerosene, and diesel)
