Water vapor is water in its molecular form, separate units of H2O floating around in the air.
But air can only carry a certain amount of water vapor. When it gets to be too much water vapor, the water molecules will bind together to form tiny droplets until the remaining free H2O molecules can again be carried by the air.
The process in which excess H2O molecules bond together to form a liquid is called condensation.
The amount of water vapor one amount of air can carry is dependent on temperature, the warmer it is, the more H2O molecules you can have for each unit of air. And also the reverse - the colder it gets, the fewer H2O molecules can be carried in the air.
So the most common cause of condensation is moist air being cooled down.
When you see drops of water forming on something that's just been taken out of the fridge, this is what's happening.
No, liquids do not turn into water when they evaporate. Evaporation is the process where a liquid turns into a vapor, typically due to heating. Water itself is a liquid, and when it evaporates, it transforms into water vapor.
The process by which water vapor changes into liquid water is called condensation. This occurs when warm air cools down and is no longer able to hold all the water vapor it contains, causing the vapor to turn into liquid droplets.
Yes, rain occurs when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into liquid droplets. This process can happen due to cooling of the air, which causes the water vapor to turn into water droplets that eventually fall as precipitation.
Water vapor is already a gas since it is the gaseous form of water. If you are referring to how water vapor turns into liquid water, it does so through condensation when the temperature decreases enough for the vapor to condense back into liquid form.
Cool air causes water vapor to condense and turn back into liquid water. This process forms clouds, fog, or dew depending on the conditions, as the cooler temperature decreases the kinetic energy of the water molecules, causing them to come together and form liquid droplets.
Heat
Increased heat or reduced pressure or both.
Water vapor turns back into liquid through a process called condensation, which occurs when the air cools down and can no longer hold all of the water vapor it contains. This excess water vapor then forms tiny water droplets, leading to the formation of clouds or fog.
Water vapor turns back into liquid through a process called condensation, where the water vapor cools down and loses energy, causing the water molecules to come together and form liquid droplets. This can happen when the temperature drops, or when the air becomes saturated with water vapor.
water vapor (gas state) can turn into water (liquid state) when cooled.
Condensation
Water can turn into a liquid through the process of condensation, where water vapor changes back into liquid form. It can also turn into a gas through the process of evaporation, where liquid water changes into water vapor.
No, liquids do not turn into water when they evaporate. Evaporation is the process where a liquid turns into a vapor, typically due to heating. Water itself is a liquid, and when it evaporates, it transforms into water vapor.
by boiling
Evaporation turns the water from liquid to gas.
That's actually backwards. Freezing liquid water changes it to ice. Boiling it will turn it into water vapor
when water vapor turns to liquid water, it needs to condensate, when its temperature goes below 100 degrees, which is water's boiling point, for it to turn into liquid.
