Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
condensation
A
the change of state from a gas to a liquid
B
any form of water that falls to Earth’s surface from the clouds
C
at constant pressure and water vapor content, the temperature at which the rate of condensation equals the rate of evaporation
D
the change of state from a liquid to a gas that usually occurs at the surface of a liquid over a wide range of temperatures
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Condensation is the process in which molecules of a gas slow down, come together, and form a liquid. When gas molecules transfer their energy to something cooler, they slow down and their attractions cause them to bond to become a liquid. Making water vapor colder increases the rate of condensation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Condensation is the change of state from a gas to a liquid. The process where the rate of evaporation of a substance is the same as the rate of condensation in a closed container is called a dynamic equilibrium. Figure 13.2. 2: The water in an open contain will eventually disappear as it evaporates (A).

Detailed explanation-3: -A popular example is water cycle i.e. evaporation, condensation and precipitation.. In condensation, water vapors which came from evaporation is cooled down and converted in the form of water droplets and collects at a surface.
