When water boils and becomes vapor, it is referred to as steam. This process occurs when water reaches its boiling point, typically 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) at standard atmospheric pressure. As the water molecules gain energy and transition from a liquid to a gaseous state, they form steam, which is an invisible gas.

What is water vapour when it changes to a liquid called?

The process is known as the condensing of water vapour into liquid water.


What does boiled water become?

seam or otherwise known as water vapour


Gaseous form of water is called?

water vapour


What parts of the water cycle occurs in warm temperatures?

When water boils, the water evaporates and changes from water to water vapour. Evaporating is when a substance changes from a liquid to a gas when it is heated and therefore has more energy, making the particles bounce around more making it become like a gas.


Which processes of the water cycle show heat being added and which ones show heat beign removed?

How the water cycle and heat are related: Adding or subtracting heat makes the water cycle work. If heat is added to ice, it melts. If heat is added to water, it evaporates. Evaporation turns liquid water into a gas called water vapour. As water goes through its cycle, it can be a solid (ice), a liquid (water), or a gas (water vapour). Ice can change to become water or water vapour. Water can change to become ice or water vapour. Water vapour can change to become ice or water. If heat is taken away from water vapour, it condenses. Condensation turns water vapour into a liquid. If heat is taken away from liquid water, it freezes to become ice. The water cycle involves the sun heating the Earth's surface water and resulting in the surface water evaporating. The water vapour rises into the Earth's atmosphere. The water cools and condenses into liquid droplets. The droplets grow until they are heavy and fall to the earth as precipitation (which can be rain, freezing rain or snow).
