1. What could have been different on Day 2 to cause rainfall?

The air parcel was cooler than the surrounding air on Day 2, so it gained energy on Day 2 but not on Day 1.
The air parcel was warmer than the surrounding air on Day 2, so it lost energy on Day 2 but not on Day 1.
The air parcel was at the same low temperature as the surrounding air on Day 2, so it had low energy on Day 2 but not on Day 1.

Page 50 Why did the warm temperatures lead to more rainfall?

Warmer air means more evaporation and more water vapor in a parcel. Warmer air parcels also rise higher in the troposphere and so they lose more energy and cool more.
Warmer air means more evaporation and more water vapor in a parcel. Warmer air parcels also rise lower in the troposphere and so they gain more energy and heat more.
