Q. 7.  How are clouds formed?

We know that clouds are formed by the process of condensation and evaporation. When water from the oceans, ponds, rivers, lakes, plants, fields, and other land surfaces evaporates, warm and moist air rises in the atmosphere. At higher altitudes, when the air becomes cooler and water vapour contained in the air condenses. On condensation, these form tiny water droplets. These tiny water droplets collect and float in the air as clouds.

Q. 5. Take out a cooled bottle of water from refrigerator and keep it on a table. After some time you notice a droplets of water around it. Why?

This will happen because when we take a water bottle out of the refrigerator, the surface of the water bottle is cold which cools the surrounding air and because of condensation water vapour in the air condenses around the surface of the bottle and form droplets of water around it.
