Question

Which phenomenon is the reason behind the formation of dew on the surface of a cold soft drink bottle kept in open air?

Answer 1

Explanation:

We get dew on the surface of a cold soft drink bottle kept in the air due to condensation. Condensation is the process due to which water vapor in the air is converted into liquid water.

Answer 2

Condensation is the reason behind the formation of dew (water droplets) on the surface of a cold soft drink bottle kept in open air.

• The atmospheric air around us, is filled with decent amount of water vapour.
• Now, whenever the atmospheric water vapour comes into the contact with the cold surface of the soft drink bottle, gets condensed into liquid water. This leaves liquid water droplets on the outer surface of the cold bottle.
• And, this phenomenon of conversion of water vapour into liquid water is known as the condensation.
