When vapor condenses into liquid, molecules lose energy as they come closer together, transitioning from a gaseous to a liquid state. This process releases heat, known as latent heat of condensation, because the attractive forces between molecules are stronger in the liquid phase, allowing them to release energy in the form of heat. This is why condensation can warm the surrounding environment, such as when steam turns back into water.

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).
When water condenses into a liquid does it transfer heat to the surroundings?
Yes.
What is the heat that is released when water condenses and changes to liquid form?
The heat released when water condenses and changes to liquid form is called the latent heat of condensation. This heat is released because the water vapor loses energy as it transitions to a liquid state, leading to a release of thermal energy.
How are weather systems dependent on water?
Because water vapour contains the latent heat of evaporation which is released back into the air when water condenses. It is this heat that drives the storms.
What does the lantent heat of vaporization measure?
the amount of heat required to change the state from liquid to vapour of unit mass without changing the temperature
Why does condensation warm on a glass of icetea?
Condensation comes from water vapour in the atmosphere turning into liquid water. It took heat for the original water to turn into vapour, and that heat is still in the vapour. It is called latent heat. When the vapour condenses, that latent heat is given back and warms the glass.
How latent heat is an important source of atmospheric energy?
In the atmosphere latent heat is a property of water vapour. When water vapour condenses it releases latent heat, and latent heat must be supplied to evaporate liquid water. This heat affects the behaviour of the weather. Similar effects occur in the change from liquid water to ice and vice versa.

When water vapor condenses into a liquid does temperature rise?
Yes. There is latent heat release when vapor condenses.
As a gas condenses to a liquid it blank the heat that was required to vaporize the liquid?

When water condenses into a liquid does it transfer heat to the surroundings?
Yes.
The heat released when water condenses and changes to liquid form is called?
heat of condensation
As a gas condenses to a liquid what does it do to the heat that was required to vaporize the liquid?
Radiates it (mainly as infrared photons).
When the gas condenses to liquid does it absorb or give off heat?
absorb
What is the heat that is released when water condenses and changes to liquid form?
The heat released when water condenses and changes to liquid form is called the latent heat of condensation. This heat is released because the water vapor loses energy as it transitions to a liquid state, leading to a release of thermal energy.
What form in the sky when water vapour condensed into water droplet's?
When water vapour condenses into water droplets during rain it absorbs heat thus making the environment cool. Why so? - Quora When water vapour condenses into water droplets during rain it absorbs heat thus making the environment cool. Why so? Spandan Mallick, Save Water... save life!
Why is it that a tub of water placed in a farmer's canning cellar helps prevent canned food from freezing in cold winters?
The tub of hot water gives off water vapour. The water vapour condenses on the cans. The liquid water gives off its latent heat of condensation to the cans.
