CLOUDS AND RAIN

The movement of water from the surface of the Earth to the air forms
clouds that eventually falls back as rain. This process is always repeated
and known as the natural water cycle. Do you know that the formation of
clouds and rain is a result from the processes of changes in the state of
matter of water?

The heat from the Sun

process to occur. 2
Water vapour will cool and

condense into fine water
droplets that form clouds.

The heat from the Sun causes evaporation
process. Water that evaporates from the
surface of the Earth such as the soils, oceans,
rivers, and lakes becomes water vapour.

The quantity of water on the surface of the Earth is
always maintained due to the natural water cycle, which
is the process of formation of clouds and rain. This cycle
involves the processes of evaporation and condensation
of water.
