Clouds begin to form when water vapor in the air reaches the correct?
Clouds begin to form when water vapor reaches the correct: altitude, dew point, and temperature.
When air mass cools when will water condense?
when the temperature reaches the dew point.
As an air mass cools water will condense when?
when the temperature reaches the dew point.
What type of cloud has the lowest condensation level?
An approximate value can be calculated by the following expression: Condensation Level (in feet) = [Surface Temperature(F) - Surface Dew Point Temperature(F)]*(1000/2.2) or Condensation Level (in meters) = [Surface Temperature(C) - Surface Dew Point Temperature(C)]*(200) Solution: Dry Adiabatic Lapse Rate (DALR) => -5.5 F/1000 ft of altitude (-1C/100m) Saturated Adiabatic Lapse Rate (SALR) => -3.3F/1000ft of altitude (-0.5C/100m) The SALR is not linear and varies with the initial surface temperature The Level of Condensation will occur at the altitude where the Air Temperature is equal to the Dew Point temperature at that altitude. Setting the two equations equal to each other will give an approximate value. TA: temperature at altitude; TS: temperature at surface; DA: dew point temperature at altitude; DS: dew point temperature at surface TA = TS-(5.5F/1000ft)*altitude or TS-(1C/100m)*altitude DA = DS-(3.3F/1000ft)*altitude or DS-(0.5C/100m)*altitude Setting TA = DA and rearranging quantities gives the equations given above The level of condensation derived by the above method will only yield an approximate value.
Why does the temperature drop once the reaction reaches the stoichiometric point?
In can occur if the reaction in question in exothermic. After the stoichiometric point , there is no reactant left to react. No reaction occurs and no heat is evolved and as a result temperature drops.
The altitude at which rising air reaches the dew point is the?
Lifting Condensation Level
How do you boil water at a high altitude?
At a high altitude, water reaches its boiling point at a lower temperature because of a lower air pressure holding it in its liquid form.
Clouds begin to form when water vapor in the air reaches the correct?
Clouds begin to form when water vapor reaches the correct: altitude, dew point, and temperature.
When air mass cools when will water condense?
when the temperature reaches the dew point.
What happen to the temperature when the water is heated?
When water is heated, the temperature increases until the boiling point. During the transition from liquid water to gaseous water (steam), the temperature does not change, and the the temperature rises again.
What forms When rising air reaches the condensation level?
dew point
When will the liquid boil?
When the temperature reaches the correct temperature (boiling point).
How would the observed temperature be affected if distillation was performed on top of a mountain?
The boiling point temperature is lower at low pressure (altitude).
When the temperature in the atmosphere reaches the --------------------- condensation occurs?
Dew point
What does water begin to do when its temperature reaches the dew point?
condense
Does air temperature increase more rapidly than dew point temperature with increasing altitude?
yes
At which point will a cloud form?
when the temperature of the rising air falls below the dew point
