  • Condensation: Understanding the Change from Gas to Liquid
    The change of gas to liquid is called condensation.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Gas: In a gaseous state, molecules are far apart and move freely.

    * Liquid: In a liquid state, molecules are closer together and can move around each other.

    Condensation occurs when:

    * The temperature of a gas decreases, causing the molecules to slow down and move closer together.

    * The pressure of the gas increases, forcing the molecules closer together.

    Examples of Condensation:

    * Dew forming on grass: Water vapor in the air cools down and condenses into liquid water droplets.

    * Fog: Water vapor in the air condenses into tiny water droplets, forming a dense cloud near the ground.

    * Rain: Water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into larger water droplets, which fall to the ground as rain.
