Which is the correct sequence between atmospheric water vapour and rainfall?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Evaporation → condensation → cloud formation → rainfall
Option A gives the correct sequence in the water cycle. Solar heating causes evaporation, which adds water vapour to the atmosphere. As the vapour rises and cools, condensation forms tiny droplets or ice crystals; these gather to form clouds. When droplets or crystals become sufficiently heavy, gravity causes precipitation such as rainfall. The other options include combustion, tides, gases, salts, or earthquakes, none of which forms the normal sequence of rainfall.
