| condensation | When water vapor, which is present in all but the driest air, comes in contact with a surface that is below what is called the "dew point temperature," the vapor becomes liquid and is called condensation An example is as follows: condensation forms on a glass of ice water since the surface of the glass is down to the dew point temperature of the inside air | en |

| condensation | Condensation consists of small drops of water which form when warm water vapour or steam touches a cold surface such as a window. He used his sleeve to wipe the condensation off the glass. Formation of a liquid or solid from its vapour. Condensation usually occurs on a surface that is cooler than the adjacent gas. A substance condenses when the pressure exerted by its vapour exceeds the vapour pressure of its liquid or solid phase at the temperature of the surface where the condensation is to occur. The process causes the release of thermal energy. Condensation occurs on a glass of cold water on a warm, humid day when water vapour in the air condenses to form liquid water on the glass's colder surface. Condensation also accounts for the formation of dew, fog, rain, snow, and clouds | en |
