Question

What is the condensation point of water?
A. ${ 0 }$ degrees celsius
B. ${ 0 }$ degrees Fahrenheit
C. ${ 100 }$ degrees Fahrenheit
D. ${ 212 }$ degrees Fahrenheit

Answer 1

Hint: Condensation: When a substance in a gaseous state gets converted into a liquid state on cooling, for example, water vapour (gas) present in the air gets condensed to water droplets (liquid) on coming in contact with the cold surface then the process is known as condensation. The condensation point is the same as the boiling point.

Complete step-by-step answer:
The condensation point of water is equivalent to the boiling point of water. This happens at ${ 212 }$ degrees Fahrenheit or ${ 100 }$ degrees Celsius. When we increase water up to and past ${ 100 }$ degrees Celsius, the water will bubble. When we reverse the procedure and the cool water vapour off to and under ${ 100 }$ degrees Celsius, it will condense and come back to liquid form.
It is most recognizable when there is an enormous temperature contrast between an object and the atmosphere.
Hence, the condensation point of water is ${ 212 }$ degrees Fahrenheit.
The correct option is D.

Additional Information:
1. Dew point is the temperature at which the air must cool in order for water that is currently present in the form of vapour to condense into a liquid.
2. When it comes to the human body, more water vapour in the air means that our cooling mechanism, sweating, becomes much less effective.

Note: The possibility to make a mistake is that you may choose option C. But the condensation point of water occurs at ${ 100 }$ degrees Celsius, not ${ 100 }$ degrees Fahrenheit.
