Question

what is condensation? when water particles evaporate

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Condensation is the process by which water vapor in the air is changed into liquid water. It is the opposite of evaporation. When water - vapor cools, it loses energy and changes from a gas to a liquid. For example, when warm, moist air meets a cold surface, the water vapor in the air condenses into liquid water droplets on the cold surface. The statement "when water particles evaporate" is incorrect as evaporation is the change from liquid to gas, not the definition of condensation.

Answer:

Condensation is the change of water vapor to liquid water, typically when the vapor cools.
