The phenomenon that causes water to condense on the windows in winter is the same as what causes water to condense on the outside of cold glasses. Because the cold glass of the window (or the cup) absorbs heat, the air around it is slightly colder. Because cold air can hold less water vapour than cold air, water condenses and gathers on the window.
What else can I help you with?
What does the condense mean?
To melt refers to the transformation from solid to liquid (think ice to water) To condense refers to the transformation from gas to liquid (think steam to water)
Why does a cold window steam up when you breathe on it?
When you exhale your breath contains water vapor. When this water vapor comes in contact with the cold window its kinetic energy is imparted to it causing the water vapor to condense forming many small water droplets upon it.
How do you collect evaporated water?
A piece of plastic over a boiling kettle will collect the steam (evaporated water) and it will condense.
How is pure water obtained from sea water in Africa?
they can get the sea water into a chamber then evaporate it and make it go through a pipe then condense it into someing
How does water vapor change to liquid water?
Water vapour is like air so if you condense it (cool it down) then it will turn into water (a liquid). I hope this helped! By: Suzie
Why breathing on to a cold window causes water vapour form your mouth to condense?
When you exhale warm, moist air onto a cold window, the air cools rapidly upon contact with the cold surface. This causes the water vapor in your breath to lose heat energy and condense into tiny water droplets on the window, creating fog or frost.
Why does water condensation occurs on the inside of windows in the winter time?
water vapor in the air touches the cold window and if the temperature of the window is below the dew point, micro-droplets of water will condense on the surface giving the typical "foggy glass" look.Copied from another wiki answers User:Mrsieversahttp://wiki.answers.com/Q/User:Tanvi%20Goel
When you breath onto a cold window and water droplet's appearit is an example of?
Condensation.... The colder temperature of the glass, causes the water vapour in your breath to condense out.
What do you call it when water appears on a window?
Condensation. This occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with a cold surface like a window, causing the water vapor in the air to condense into liquid water droplets.
What is exhaled breath containing water vapor?
Yes, it does. Simply get close to a mirror or cold window and breathe on it and you will see the water vapor condense into water.
When you breathe onto a cold window droplets appear it is an example of?
Condensation - the cold glass causes the warm air to condense from gas to liquid.
If you breathe into a cold car window to water droplet will form into?
Your exhaled, warm, moist breath will condense into droplets of water when in contact with the cold glass.
Which gas can produce droplets on a cold window?
Water vapor in the air can condense on a cold window, forming droplets. This is because the cold temperature causes the water vapor to cool and change from a gas to a liquid state.
Why water running down the window of the apartment when its winter?
When the humid indoor air hits the cold window condensation occurs i.e, the water vapor in the air turns into water droplets on the window.
When you breathe onto cold window and water droplets appear it is an example of?
condensation. The warm moist air from your breath cools upon contact with the cold window, causing the water vapor to condense into tiny droplets on the surface.
What happens to the steam from a kettle boiling near a cold window?
The steam from a kettle will hit the cold window surface and lose heat rapidly, causing it to condense back into water droplets. This is because the cold window cools down the steam quickly, which is why you can see the steam forming water droplets on the window.
ice crystals forming on a window a chemical change?
No, ice crystals forming on a window is a physical change. A physical change involves a change in the form of a substance without changing its chemical composition. The water molecules in the air condense and freeze on the window, but they are still water molecules.
