Why is cooling of air necessary for fog formation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: So that water vapour can condense into tiny droplets

Direct answer: D, so that water vapour can condense into tiny droplets. Air contains water vapour in invisible gaseous form. When moist air cools, its capacity to hold water vapour decreases. If it cools to the dew point, the air becomes saturated. Excess vapour then changes into tiny liquid droplets around suitable particles in the air. When these droplets remain suspended close to the ground, they form fog and reduce visibility. D is correct because it states the actual physical process. A is wrong because cooling does not turn air into soil. B is wrong because movement toward the sea is not the condition that creates fog. C is wrong because water vapour does not become rock during ordinary fog formation. Fog formation also needs sufficient moisture and suitable atmospheric conditions; cooling is the trigger that allows condensation. Memory cue: cooling lowers vapour-holding capacity, so vapour condenses into visible droplets.
