Which additional thermal condition is needed for frost compared with dew?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Surface temperature must be below freezing point

Correct answer: A. Dew consists mainly of liquid water droplets that form when a surface cools to its dew point, while frost forms when water is deposited or freezes as ice on a surface. Therefore, for frost, the surface temperature must be below the freezing point, usually below 0°C under ordinary conditions. A is correct because it identifies the extra thermal requirement. B is wrong because high temperature prevents frost. C is wrong because maximum evaporation is not required; frost depends mainly on moisture and cooling. D is too absolute: calm air often favours frost, but wind speed does not have to be exactly zero. Memory cue: dew is liquid; frost is ice, so frost needs freezing conditions.
