Directions: This assignment will test your knowledge of how much you understand condensation, the reason clouds form, and why rain happens.

We will recap on the purpose of clouds, how they form, and why they matter.

No slide presentation for this lesson.

Part 1: What is a Cloud?

1

Clouds are made up of microscopic water droplets and microscopic ice crystals.

What is smog?

pollution that harms our lungs, irritates our eyes and throats, and corrodes structures

the material that clouds carry inside of them

dust that comes after a large dust storm

Describe the effect that smog has on our daily lives.

Categorize the types of clouds.

Cirrus
Stratus
Cumulus
Patronus

What does humidity refer to?

the amount of water vapor in the air

the amount of air in the air parcel

the amount of water vapor in the city

When do clouds produce rain?

Part 3: Identifying conditions of Rain

Directions: Use what you have learned in previous lessons about how rain happens.

USE LAB TEST MODE!!

You can always use the sim to test conditions! 😄

1

Which THREE conditions will produce the MOST cloud AND rain?
Hint: Hot transfers to cold. You have to tinker with the sim to make clouds and rain in lab mode!

1

Which of these conditions will have the most condensation?
Hint: Hot transfers to cold. Condensation is when gas turns to liquid because of COOLING.

null

0

How do you know that condition will have the most condensation?
Your response should have the following vocabulary terms used:
evaporation - condensation - transfer - air parcel

4

Look at the conditions in each of the images. Categorize the images into the correct category.
Hint:
What has to be true about the air parcel temperature and surrounding air temperature to make rain?
Remember EQUILIBRIUM??
Two make rain, two do not.

WILL produce rain
WILL NOT produce rain

Part 4: Condesation Model Practice

Reflect on your understanding of condensation.

Remember, condensation means when a gas (water vapor) turns to liquid.

Review each part of the model BEFORE answering any of questions below.

0

What is the amount of liquid in the AFTER image?

high

low

medium

0

What is the amount of water vapor in the AFTER image? Think about how clouds are made. How much is liquid, how much is gas after condensation?

high

medium

low

0

What is the temperature of the air parcel in the AFTER image?

Explain: Did this model show condensation? How do you know?
Sentence Starter:
This model (did/did not) show condesation....
I know this because...
