When water evaporates, is kinetic energy involved and how is it involved?

• Kinetic energy causes the particles of water to slow down and become more dense.

• Kinetic energy causes the particles of water to speed up and turn into a gas.

• Kinetic energy is not a part of evaporation.

• Kinetic energy causes the particles of water to turn into ice.

What is the relationship between temperature of air particles and air pressure?

• If the air pressure decreases then the temperature increases.

• If the air pressure decreases then the temperature of the air increases.

• If the air pressure increases then the temperature of the air particles increases.

Condensation nuclei in the atmosphere could include:

• smoke

• dust

• pollen

• sea salt
