Condensation is a process by which vapor or gas is converted into liquid. Water vapors which are present in air becomes due to climatic conditions. It is converted into liquids which ultimately forms clouds. The condensation of water will only take place if it condenses on any other surface. The surface is has to be cooler than that of the water vapor. Alternatively the water vapour equilibrium in the air should exceed. The process of condensation results in the formation of clouds and fogs. Precipitation also takes place.

Precipitation results when the condensation occurs so much that the air is not able to hold the water any more. Clouds become heavy and then the water from the cloud falls on the earth in the form of rain, hail or snow. The fallen water accumulates into the earth and becomes ground water which gets evaporated and results in the continuation of the water cycle.

Why does water vapor need solid particles in the atmosphere to form clouds?

Particles are needed because then the water vapor can condense on them


What gasses condense?

Gases with low boiling points, such as water vapor, can condense into liquid form when cooled. Additionally, gases with high vapor pressure can also condense under the right conditions.


Does water from a puddle become water gas or condense?

simple it depends if it is sunny it evaporates if it is cold but not at freezing it will condense Liam sams


What are the three things needed for condensation to occur?

Condensation occurs when the air is saturated with water vapor, the air cools down, and there are surfaces for the water vapor to condense on.


What can water vapor condense into?

What might water vapor condense into?

Water vapor usually condenses into a liquid state (water); but, if the conditions are cold enough it can condense straight into a sold form (ice or frost), just like when frost appears on railings or windows after a cold night.


At what temperature does water vapor condense?

Water vapor condenses into liquid water at its dew point temperature.


How can water vapor turn into gas?

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.


What energy is needed for water to turn into water vapour?

As soon as the temperature drops below the dew point, water will condense from water vapor.


Why did the rain rain?

Rain is part of the water cycle and occurs under many varied conditions, all of which may condense liquid water from gaseous water vapor.


What is one thing needed for condensation to occur?

There must be moisture in the air. When cooled, the water vapor in the air becomes liquid water- but if there is no moisture, then it cannot condense.


In order for clouds to form what must be present in the atmosphere for water vapor to condense on?

In order for clouds to form, water vapor needs a surface to condense upon. This can be provided by tiny dust particles, salt particles, or other aerosols present in the atmosphere. These particles serve as nuclei around which water vapor can condense to form cloud droplets.
