Question

Water molecules into water droplets by clinging to dust or other small particles suspended in the atmosphere, forming clouds through what process?

Answer 1

Clouds form by water molecules undergoing nucleation.

Explanation:

Water droplets rising through the atmosphere due to evaporation will continue to rise until the atmosphere has cooled them from a vaporous state to a solid state. However, in order for water droplets to form, they must condense around something--usually dust or salt particles. This process is called nucleation, and once one droplet has condensed, other droplets condense around and near the first water droplet, forming clouds.
