Question

In the water cycle, what type of phase change(s) occur(s) above the oceans?

Answer 1

You got one. Water does indeed evaporate over the oceans. But how do clouds form? What phase change occurs when a vapor turns into a liquid again?

Answer 2

@eashmore the clouds are nothing but saturated liquid vapors..it means the water present is in a dual form..some amount of it is in liquid and some in pure vapor..when temperature at heights decrease the vapor form condenses and falls as rain:)

Answer 3

mass of the liquid water is so small that they can easily be carried by the winds and vapors

Answer 4

Okay. So not the cloud formation, but the rain.

That happens over oceans right?

Answer 5

you want to ask how does rain happens over oceans?
