Let me work through this step by step.
Question 1: The glass with condensation
Looking at the word bank: cold, loses, mist, water droplets, water vapour, condenses
The sentence structure is:
"The _______ on the glass is made up of tiny _______. When the _______ comes into contact with _______ surface of glass, it _______ heat. The water vapour _______ and turns into water droplets."
Let me fill this in logically:
- What do we see on the glass? Mist (which is made of tiny water droplets)
- What comes into contact with the glass? Water vapour (from the air)
- What kind of surface does the glass have? Cold surface
- What happens to the water vapour? It loses heat
- What does the water vapour do? It condenses
So for Question 1:
1. "mist" on the glass is made up of tiny "water droplets"
2. When the "water vapour" comes into contact with "cold" surface of glass
3. it "loses" heat
4. The water vapour "condenses" and turns into water droplets
Question 2: The bathroom mirror
This follows the same pattern as Question 1 - it's describing the same condensation process but on a mirror instead of a glass.
The sentence structure is identical:
"The _______ on the mirror in the bathroom is made up of tiny _______. When the _______ comes into contact with _______ surface of mirror, it _______ heat. The water vapour _______ and turns into water droplets."
Using the same logic:
1. "mist" on the mirror is made up of tiny "water droplets"
2. When the "water vapour" comes into contact with "cold" surface of mirror
3. it "loses" heat
4. The water vapour "condenses" and turns into water droplets
Both questions are describing the same scientific process of condensation - when warm water vapour in the air touches a cold surface, it loses heat and changes from a gas (vapour) to liquid (water droplets), which we see as mist or fog.
Final Answer:
Question 1:
The
mist on the glass is made up of tiny
water droplets. When the
water vapour comes into contact with
cold surface of glass, it
loses heat. The water vapour
condenses and turns into water droplets.
Question 2:
The
mist on the mirror in the bathroom is made up of tiny
water droplets. When the
water vapour comes into contact with
cold surface of mirror, it
loses heat. The water vapour
condenses and turns into water droplets.
