What is Condensation?

Condensation is the change from a gas into a liquid, which means it loses heat from the surroundings. This happens when warm air touches the colder surface and it formed water droplets.

How can condensation happen?

• Condensation can happen when warm air meets the colder surface, e.g. water bottle, glass, and others.

• Condensation can happen when water vapor loses heat and changes into water droplets

Poll

Which one of these statement is showing the process of condensation?

• Ice melted into liquid water

• Water vapor loses heat

• Water droplets loses heat

• Steam is formed

What are Water Droplets?

Water droplets is formed when water vapor loses heat and changes into tiny water droplets.

Difference between water droplets and water vapor

• Water droplets are formed in condensation when water vapor loses heat

• Water vapor are formed in evaporation when liquid gains heat from its surroundings

• Water droplets can be seen in the colder surface

• Water vapor cannot be seen although it's in the air
