The process of water turning into gas (water vapor) is called evaporation.

Heating water into water vapor is called boiling. High-temperature water vapor is called steam.
The water has become water vapor.

Why the gases are more soluble in cold water than they are in hot water?

gas is more soluble in cold water. In hot water, the molecules are farther apart, leaving room for gas to escape. That's why it's LESS soluble, and why hot water makes clearer ice cubes. Cold water molecules are close together, trapping in the gas and dissolving it. We keep pop in the freezer so the carbonation will last longer.


When water boils in a pan on a hot burner how does heat get to the water?

The only way to 'place' water on a hot burner is when it is a solid (ice), or as a container of liquid water Naturally, the hot burner would melt it into a liquid and rapidly boid it away into water vapor (gas)


Process of water vapor changing into a liquid is called?

When water vapor in the air becomes liquid, it's called condensation. Many people see condensation when carrying a cold glass outside on a hot day. The condensation process creates clouds in the atmosphere.


Why is a beaker of cold water use in some experiments when collection gas?

To clarify a point - a gas is more soluble in cold water than in hot water. I can only surmise that cold water is used in the process of gas collection by downward displacement of water due to the lower vapor pressure of water at the lower temperature - compared to normal room temperature. This would have the effect of collecting drier gas in the collecting cylinder.


Why do you have small air bubbles in your hot water. not on cold side or when hot runs out?

When water is heated it releases gas. The gas comes out in a bubble form.

Water held in the atmosphere in the form of gas is called?

Water in the form of gas is called water vapor :3. Steam is a visible form of water vapor and can be considered a gas or mist.


The gas erupted by volcanoes that combines with oxygen in the air to form hot water vapor or steam is called what?

hydrogen


What happen when water vapor from the hot water cools?

A change of phase; from gas phase (water vapors) to liquid phase; the phenomenon is called condensation.


What is the gas that is erupted by volcanoes that combines with oxygen in the air to form hot water vapor or steam?

Hydrogen is a minor constituent of volcanic gas. This will burn in air to form water vapor. However, volcanic gas also includes water vapor anyway.


What is the gaseous form of water called examples?

In the liquid state, water is water. In a solid state, water is ice. In a gas state water is called water vapor.


What is water vapor made of?

Water. Water vapor occurs when water evaporates, or heats up so much that it turns into a gas. This gas is called water vapor, or steam, although steam is hot water vapor.


What is the outpouring gas that comes from the earth's hot interior?

The outpouring gas that comes from the earth's hot interior is called volcanic gas. It is released during volcanic eruptions and consists of gases such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide.


What is the gas that results from evaporation called?

Vapor - that's why it's called evaporation. The liquid that is evaporated, of course, will have a more specific name, such as ethanol that results from the evaporation of whiskey (so drink it as fast as you can) or water vapor from the evaporation of water. Steam, or clouds, is water vapor that has condensed to very fine particles of water. Water also evaporates from milk, hence milk with less water than it should have is called 'evaporated milk'. Direct evaporation from a solid to vapor is known as sublimation, and occurs with some dyes for example, that can be used to dye patterns on T-shirts by using a hot iron to iron paper printed with sublimation dyes, so that the dye (vapor in this case) transfers directkly to the cloth.


Is the sun frozen or water vapor?

Neither, it is plasma (hot ionized gas). Mostly hydrogen and helium.


How does liquid water become vapor water?

Liquid water becomes water vapor through a process called evaporation, where heat energy from the surroundings causes water molecules at the surface of the liquid to gain enough energy to break free from the liquid phase and enter the gas phase as water vapor.


Does co convert to co 2?

Not by itself. However, it can combine with oxygen to form CO2. Hot CO will also react with water vapor to form CO2 and hydrogen. This is called the "water gas shift reaction."


Why H2 CO called water gas?

"H2 CO" is not typically referred to as "water gas". "Water gas" is a mixture of hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO) produced by reacting steam with heated carbonaceous materials such as coal. It is called water gas because steam (water vapor) is a key component in its production.
