Question

which led to the formation of oceans after water on earths surface evaporated?
the sun released a strong burst of water vapor.
as earth cooled, water in the atmosphere condensed.
materials collided due to strong gravitational forces.
the ozone layer formed to protect against harmful uv ray exposure.

Explanation:

When Earth cooled, water vapor in the atmosphere (from earlier evaporation) condensed. Condensation is the process where gas turns into liquid. This liquid water then collected to form oceans. The sun doesn't release water vapor in the way described. Material collision due to gravity is more related to planet - formation processes rather than ocean - formation after evaporation. The ozone layer forming is about UV protection and not directly related to ocean formation from evaporated water.

Answer:

As Earth cooled, water in the atmosphere condensed.
