What happens to water particles when heated?

Back

The speed of the water particles increases because the thermal energy of the water increases.

Front

What is condensation?

Back

Condensation is the process by which water vapor cools and changes back into liquid water.

What is precipitation?

Back

Precipitation is any form of water, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail, that falls from the atmosphere to the ground.
