Clouds are made when water droplets attach to particles of what in the air?

yes it is made of water vapor
======================
No. Water vapor is an invisible gas. You can't see water vapor. Clouds, on the other hand, can be seen. That's because clouds are composed of water droplets - liquid water, or water ice - tiny ice crystals. Either way, clouds are not invisible water vapor.
Clouds can form as water vapor condenses to form tiny droplets of liquid water. These droplets can come together - coalesce - to form larger droplets. You've seen fog. Fog is a cloud at ground level. And if you've seen fog, then you've seen that clouds are composed of tiny water droplets suspended in air.
Clouds can also be composed of ice crystals. (Cirrus clouds) In one case liquid water can freeze to form ice particles. It is more likely that water vapor undergoes "deposition", the opposite of sublimation. Sublimation is the process where a solid goes directly to the gas phase without going through the liquid phase. Deposition is the process where a gas goes directly from the gas phase to the solid phase.

What is the combination of water vapour and dust suspended in the sky?
I suspect you are thinking of clouds, but this is not an accurate description of them. It is important to realise that clouds contain droplets of liquid water, not water vapour. The droplets often condense around dust particles.
How are planes' contrail lines similar to clouds?
Both are mainly composed of droplets of condensed water.
What is the process of clouds forming when water vapor in the air becomes liquid water?
condensation (the water vapor condenses onto the small dust particles in the air creating clouds)
Does rain come from a sweating cloud?
No. Rain comes from clouds, but the clouds do not sweat. Clouds are made of water droplets, ice crystals, or a combination of the two. Rain falls when ice crystals grow inside a cloud, melt, and fall to the ground.
What happens to water vapor when it cools then condenses around dust and salt?
When water vapor condenses around dust particles a cloud is formed
What do water droplets form on to create clouds?
Dust particles in the air.
Clouds form when water droplets start growing on one of these?
Clouds form when water droplets collect on dust particles in the air. When the clouds become saturated, rain falls from the sky.
Why are clouds not classed as a gas?
Clouds are made up of tiny droplets of water that have condensed on dust particles in the atmosphere.
When clouds form condensed droplets of water form around what?
dust/ass particles
Is this a true statement clouds are large quantities of liquid water droplets?
Mostly, but clouds also contain dust particles and bits and pieces of ice, depending on how high they are. It is widely accepted that clouds are made of water droplets and water vapor
When water droplets form around dust particles and become heavy enough to fall out of the clouds you have what?
rain
How clouds forms?
When the water on earth gets heated by the sun,the water evaporates.Water can evaporate from,lakes,oceans,and rivers.So when the water evaporates it becomes water droplets in the air.Then when the water droplets hit cool air,they cool and become a cloud.That is how clouds are formed.
What are cumulus cloud made of?
Water of course like all clouds no you are wrong some clouds are made of ice and other particles.
What forms when millions of water droplets become suspended in air and collect around small dust particles?
Clouds
How do clouds form when water droplets grow?
the water from the sea or ocean goes up the clouds then the water droplets grow.
The forming of water droplets and clouds in the atmosphere?
The forming of water droplets and clouds in the atmosphere is referred to as condensation.
Are clouds evaporated water in the form of a gas?
kinda. you see, clouds are made out of tiny droplets from the water evaporated that forms a gas. the particles go up in the air, and they make a cycle!!
