Condensation the conversion of water from a gas into a liquid. Animation by: Bramer. Condensation is the change of water from its gaseous form (water vapor) into liquid water. Condensation generally occurs in the atmosphere when warm air rises, cools and looses its capacity to hold water vapor. As a result, excess water vapor condenses to form cloud droplets.
All of these are examples of water leaving the vapor state in the warm air and condensing into liquid as it is cools. Why do clouds form and why does it rain? Air, even clear air, contains water molecules. Clouds exist in the atmosphere because of rising air. As air rises and cools the water in it can condense out, forming clouds. Since clouds drift over the landscape, they are one of the ways that water moves geographically around the globe in the water cycle.
