Solution

The four chief forms of condensation are:

  1. Dew: This form of condensation occurs when the air near the ground cools down and can no longer hold all of the water vapor it contains, so it condenses into liquid water on the surface of objects.

  2. Frost: This is similar to dew, but it occurs when the dew point is below freezing, causing the water vapor to crystallize into ice instead of liquid water.

  3. Fog: This is a cloud that forms close to the ground. It occurs when the air near the ground cools enough to condense its water vapor into tiny droplets of liquid water that stay suspended in the air.

  4. Clouds: These form when warm, moist air rises, cools, and then condenses. The water vapor condenses onto tiny particles of dust in the air, forming droplets that come together to create a cloud.
