Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
My glass of ice water is sitting in the sun and has droplets of water on the outside of the glass. What is happening?
A
condensation
B
evaporation
C
melting
D
freezing
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Condensation can also produce water droplets on the outside of soda cans or glasses of cold water. When warm air hits the cold surface, it reaches its dew point and condenses. This leaves droplets of water on the glass or can. When a pocket of air becomes full of water vapor, clouds form.

Detailed explanation-2: -When water molecules in the air get cold, they slow down, join together, and become tiny drops of liquid water. This process is called condensation. This is what happens when water molecules in the air touch the outside of the cold cup that is exposed to air.

Detailed explanation-3: -Water droplets form on the outer surface of the container containing a cold substance due to Condensation. The temperature of the container is cold enough to cool down the water vapour in the surrounding air, so it turns from gaseous to liquid state.

Detailed explanation-4: -THAT MAKE IT UP. WHEN THE WATER MOLECULES IN THE AIR TOUCH THE COLD CUP, THEY SLOW DOWN, AND CONDENSE INTO WATER DROPLETS.

Detailed explanation-5: -Yes, the water that appears on the outside of the glass is from the air. Invisible water vapor in the air condenses into liquid water when it comes into contact with the cold surface of the glass.
