Why can cloud droplet formation become difficult in the absence of dust particles?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because water vapour has fewer tiny nuclei on which to condense
Dust particles can provide condensation nuclei, which are surfaces on which water vapour begins to condense when air cools and becomes sufficiently saturated. Without such nuclei, droplet formation may require greater supersaturation and can be less efficient. Therefore option B is correct. The absence of dust does not remove oxygen, freeze nitrogen, or transfer ozone to the sea.
