Why is mist called a lighter form than fog?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because it reduces visibility less

Direct answer: A is correct. Mist consists of tiny water droplets suspended near the ground, much like fog, but it is generally less dense. Because there are fewer droplets or weaker concentration of suspended moisture, less light is scattered and a person can see farther through it than through fog. Thus the important difference in this question is the degree of visibility reduction, not a completely different substance. A is correct because lighter mist obstructs vision less severely. B is wrong because mist is associated with moisture; water vapour may condense into droplets that form it. C is wrong because mist is not a solid sheet of ice. D is wrong because mist is a near-surface atmospheric phenomenon, not something formed below the ground. The exact boundary between mist and fog can vary with the visibility standard used, but the school-level distinction is that mist is less dense. Memory cue: fog is thicker; mist is milder.
