What makes steam visible to the human eye?
Answer: we are able to see it because the steam is evaporating Answer: Actually, steam is invisible. What we see is small droplets of water, which appear when the steam cools down.
Why does hot food steam when it is served?
Hot food steams when it is served because the heat causes the water in the food to evaporate, turning into steam. This steam rises and is visible as the food is served, creating the effect of steaming.
Why does hot water steam when it's thrown out of a cup in a cold temperature?
When hot water is exposed to cold air, the temperature difference causes the water to release heat rapidly, turning it into steam. This rapid evaporation creates the visible steam cloud that you see when hot water is thrown out of a cup in a cold temperature.
Why was there steam coming out of the kettle's spout?
Steam comes out of the kettle's spout when the water inside reaches its boiling point and turns into vapor. This is a natural result of the heat causing the water to evaporate and escape through the spout, creating the visible steam.
What are the white clouds when you boil water?
The white clouds seen when boiling water are caused by tiny water droplets that condense and become visible as steam. The steam appears white because it scatters light, similar to a cloud in the sky.

When a kettle is boiling it produces visible steam. What does this steam contain?
Actually, the steam part is not actually steam, but water vapour. If you look closely at a boiling kettle, there is a clear space between the spout and the actual (steam). That clear space is the steam, which is invisible. What appears afterwards is water vapour.
Why steam is sometimes visible as in winter?
Its not, steam and water vapor, both gaseous forms of water, are invisible. Water on earth's surface, below it's surface, or in its atmosphere is only visible in the form of liquid or ice. Its possible that under pressure conditions elsewhere in the universe that gaseous water could be visible.
How can steam come from my mouth from spit?
When the warm air from your lungs meets the very cold air of winter it condenses into visible water vapour. This is the steam you see.
Why does hot food steam when it is served?
Hot food steams when it is served because the heat causes the water in the food to evaporate, turning into steam. This steam rises and is visible as the food is served, creating the effect of steaming.

Is Water vapor condensed steam.?
Yes. Steam is the gaseous form of water, and it is invisible. When it meets the colder air it starts to condense, and forms water vapour, which is visible.
What are the white clouds when you boil water?
The white clouds seen when boiling water are caused by tiny water droplets that condense and become visible as steam. The steam appears white because it scatters light, similar to a cloud in the sky.

Water vapor and steam are the same thing?
Yes, but that stuff you can see isn't steam. Neither steam nor water vapor are visible. The could of white stuff you can see above a boiling kettle is water droplets formed by the condensation of the water vapor/steam as it collides with the cooler air outside the kettle.
Is dry steam visible to the naked eye?
Normally no, but if the steam is at a sufficiently temperature, and being viewed in darkness, then it may display its colour temperature. This can occur with some fumaroles. Technically, steam is the invisible phase of water vapour, but common use accepts the condensate phase, near boiling point, as steam.
How to check a blown headgasket?
water in the oil , steam from engine near gasket surface, lossing coolant with no visible leak
