Bookmark or Share- Condensation and the Water Cycle | U.S. Geological Survey - USGS.govCondensation is the process by which water vapor in the air is changed into liquid water; it’s the opposite of evaporation. Condensation is crucial to the water cycle because it is responsible for the formation of clouds.
- Condensation - National Geographic SocietyCondensation is the process where water vapor becomes liquid. It is the reverse action of evaporation, where liquid water becomes a vapor. Condensation happens one of two ways: Either the air is cooled to its dew point or it becomes so saturated with water vapor that it cannot hold any more water.
- Changing State—Condensation - American Chemical SocietyCondensation is the process in which molecules of a gas slow down, come together, and form a liquid. When gas molecules transfer their energy to something cooler, they slow down, and their attractions cause them to join together to become a liquid. Making water vapor colder increases the rate of condensation.
- 12.4: Evaporation and Condensation - Chemistry LibreTextsCondensation is the change of state from a gas to a liquid. Figure \(\PageIndex{2}\): Evaporation (A) and condensation (B). In order for a liquid molecule to escape into the gas state, the molecule must have enough kinetic energy to overcome the intermolecular attractive forces in the liquid.
- How does condensation happen? | Live ScienceCondensation is the process of water vapor turning back into liquid water. USGS explains that condensation is crucial to the water cycle because it's how clouds are formed. But you don't just...
