The term for the drops of water that form on surfaces near the ground is "dew." Dew forms when the temperature of the surface cools to the dew point temperature of the surrounding air, causing water vapor in the air to condense into liquid water droplets.
These are called dew drops. They form when the temperature of the surface cools down causing water vapor in the air to condense and form small droplets of water. Dew is more likely to form on clear, calm nights when the temperature drops close to the dew point temperature.
Rain comes in drops because water droplets in clouds merge together to form larger drops due to gravity and air resistance. Eventually, these drops become heavy enough to fall to the ground as raindrops.
Frost is the term used to describe tiny ice crystals that form when water vapor in the air condenses and freezes on surfaces near the ground.
Water molecules naturally adhere to other water molecules. As water vapor condenses in the air, the molecules collect into droplets until they are heavy enough to begin falling. Depending on the various weather conditions, these droplets can connect to other droplets before they reach the ground, thereby forming larger and larger drops, or they could evaporate before they reach the ground, returning to the gaseous state in the air.
No. Precipitation is liquid or ice that falls from a cloud and hits the ground. Dew actually FORMS on the ground and therefore does not "fall to the ground"...That makes it, by definition, not "precipitation"....
The air near the ground cools to the DEW POINT.

Water drops are small, spherical particles of liquid water formed when water condenses from its gaseous state. They can be found on surfaces in the form of dew or as raindrops falling from clouds in the sky.
Those drops of water are called dew. Dew forms when the temperature of the surface cools down and reaches the dew point, causing water vapor in the air to condense and form small droplets.
Wetlands form in places where water is trapped in low areas or where ground water seeps onto the surfaces of land
The moisture comes from the water vapor in the air. As the temperature drops to near the dew point, the water vapor condenses on cold surfaces in the desert.
Water forms spherical drops on hydrophobic surfaces because the molecules have a tendency to minimize contact with the surface due to surface tension. This shape reduces the surface area in contact with the surface, allowing the water droplet to bead up into a more stable and energetically favorable shape.
Water that is already on the ground evaporates into the sky and creates clouds, then the clouds release water in little drops and that's how it rains
