Explain the following : How can you relate the formation of water droplets on the outer surface of a bottle taken out of a refrigerator with formation of dew ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

i. When temperature of air at dawn falls, air becomes saturated with vapour. As a result, the excess vapour condenses on surface of objects in the form of dew.
ii. When a bottle is taken out from refrigerator, it cools the air surrounding it. Air in vicinity becomes saturated with vapour and excess vapour condenses on the surface of bottle in the form of water droplets.
iii Thus, both the phenomena take place due to air reaching its dew point temperature
