2. Condensation
3. Precipitation
4. Run-off (Though not really considered.)
Evaporation is when water from lakes/oceans/water sources is "sucked" into the sky, or evaporated. It's vaporization.
Condensation is when the water in the sky is being changed from the gaseous state into a liquid, the reverse of vaporization.
Precipitation is rain/sleet/snow/hail, it's the water from the condensation.
There are four stages in a water cycle, evaporation, condensation, precipitation and collection.
When water from the oceans, lakes, rivers, and the ground gain heat from the Sun and the surrounding air, it evaporates into water vapor. The water vapor rises up into the Earth's atmosphere.
Since the surrounding air is cooler there, the water vapor loses heat and condenses into tiny water droplets, also known as mist, which forms clouds. When the droplets get too heavy, they fall back to Earth as rain or snow. This process is known as precipitation.
The rain or melted snow refills the the oceans, lakes and rivers.
When water evaporates, impurities are left behind. Therefore, the water cycle ensures that we get a continuous supply of clean, fresh water.
The four stages of the water cycle are:
- Evaporation
- Condensation
- Precipitation
- Collection
What else can I help you with?
Can you give me the example of freezing?
Water turning from a liquid into a solid. Of course by FREEZING it.
What is the freezing point of water with 70000 ppm chloride?
A 7 % sodium chloride solution in water has a freezing point of -4,38 0C.
Why does coke with water melt ice faster than juice and milk?
Water has no pollutants or extra chemicals with lower freezing point to cause it's freezing process to slow. Coke has many chemicals with lower freezing point then regular water. Juice doesn't have the chemicals(most of the time) but it has fruit, the fruit has a lower freezing point then water so therefore it lowers the overall freezing point.
Will bottled salt water placed into a bucket of water keep it from freezing?
It will certainly not keep the water in the bucket from freezing and, if the temperature goes low enough, the bottled salt water will also freeze.
What is the freezing point of hot water?
Water, like all substances, has only one freezing/melting point, which is 0 C or 32 degrees F.
What is the freezing point of water, and what is the liquid form of water called before it reaches its freezing point, and what is the solid form of water called after it freezes?
The freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The liquid form of water before it reaches its freezing point is called water. The solid form of water after it freezes is called ice.
How is hail form in terms?
Hail forms by small water droplets evaporating then falling through a freezing layer of rain then rising then falling back through the freezing layer. it may do this a few times before it finally falls.
What is the different stages that a water droplet would go through when going through the water cycle?
There are four different stages. These are : Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation and Collection.
How can you pure water?
you can purify water through several stages of microfiltration.
When temperatures are near freezing, which freezes first: water or alcohol?
When temperatures are near freezing, water freezes first before alcohol.
What is the before scene of shattered freezing water?
u stink
Why does ocean water get colder than fresh water before freezing?
This is because of the salt in the water
What will the mass of ice be after freezing?
The mass of ice after freezing will be the same as the mass before freezing. The volume however, will be greater as ice than it was as liquid water.
How can baking powder melt an ice cube?
through water and freezing
Does boiling water before freezing it make the ice clear?
Yes, boiling water before freezing it can help make the ice clearer because it removes dissolved gases and impurities that can cause cloudiness in ice.
What do you do if you are in freezing water?
Get out of the freezing water.
What observable change does freezing water have?
Crystals form on the surface and then spread through the water. This changes the reflectivity of the water.
