Question
what happens during condensation in the atmosphere?
water evaporates from oceans and lakes into the air.
water vapor cools and changes to liquid droplets forming clouds.
water vapor heats up and rises higher into the atmosphere.
water droplets fall from clouds as rain or snow.
Condensation is the process where water vapor (gas) changes to liquid water. When water vapor cools, it loses energy. As a result, the water molecules slow down and come closer together. This leads to the formation of liquid droplets. In the atmosphere, these liquid droplets form clouds.
