rain, then sleet, then hail
this word is the antonym (opposite) of condense.
when water vapor touches a glass window and fogs it up.
the process of changing from a gas or vapor to a liquid.

Explanation:

• The stage in the water cycle where water travels from Earth into the atmosphere: Evaporation is the process where water (in liquid state) changes to water vapor (gas state) and moves from Earth's surface (like oceans, lakes, rivers) into the atmosphere.
• Rain, then sleet, then hail: These are all forms of precipitation. Precipitation is any form of water - liquid or solid - that falls from the atmosphere to the Earth's surface.
• This word is the antonym (opposite) of CONDENSE: Condense means to change from a gas to a liquid. Evaporate means to change from a liquid to a gas, so evaporation is the antonym of condense in the context of phase - change related to water in the water cycle.
• When water vapor touches a glass window and fogs it up: This is condensation. Water vapor (gas) cools down when it touches the cooler glass window and changes back to liquid water droplets (which make the window foggy).
• The process of changing from a gas or vapor to a liquid: This is the definition of condensation.
