Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the air. They form when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses onto particles like dust or salt, creating cloud droplets. These droplets then come together to form clouds through a process called condensation.

Water Vapor


Clouds are formed from the process of?

The process that most directly results in cloud formation is Condensation. When condensation is formed, it evaporates into the atmosphere and forms clouds. Most people don't know this, but clouds are actually formed completely from rain, not water vapor. :} The last statement about clouds being formed from strictly rain is incorrect. Clouds are formed from water vapor.


Are clouds formed through evaporation?

No, clouds are formed through a process called condensation. When water vapor in the air cools and condenses into liquid water droplets, it forms clouds. Evaporation is the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas (water vapor) and is the opposite of condensation.


Why do clouds form over ocean water?

The clouds are formed by water vapor evaporating from the ocean. The water vapor condenses and falls again as rain (or snow) thereby completing the water cycle.


What is the large masses of water vapor called?

Large masses of water vapor are called clouds. Clouds are formed when warm air rises and cools, causing the water vapor to condense into tiny water droplets or ice crystals.


Are dark clouds caused by the evaporation of dirty water?

No, dark clouds are formed by more and more water vapor in the atmosphere condensing and drawing more water vapor causing the clouds to thicken and darken as they get heavier and heavier with water.


Is the source of all clouds and precipitation is water vapor True or False?

True. Clouds and precipitation are formed when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into liquid water droplets or ice crystals.


What are clouds that are puffy and form shapes?

they are puffy because water is inside the cloud. They are called cumulus clouds and are formed, like all clouds, of water vapor.


Is this physical or chemical change clouds forms when water vapor in the air condenses?

This is a physical change. When water vapor in the air condenses to form clouds, it is a change in state from a gas (water vapor) to a liquid (water droplets). No new substances are formed.


What is formed by water vapor in the air?

Water vapor in the air can form clouds, fog, or mist depending on conditions such as temperature and humidity.


What are cumulonimbus clouds filled with?

Clouds are formed by rising pockets of warm air with water vapor in them. The water vapor then condenses, forming the cloud. Cumulonimbus clouds are just very large clouds that produce thunder-storms. Cirrus clouds are formed when the condensed water vapor freezes, giving the clouds a wispy look.


What are formed when water vapor cools and condenses high above the earth's surface?
