GG101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Fluid Parcel, Dew Point, Capillary Action
Document Summary
Hydrogen bonding water molecules atract each other based on polarity, posiive hydrogen bonds with negaive oxygen, without this bonding water would be a gas at normal temperature. Polar front where masses of air with diferent characterisics meet. The movement of water through the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere, begins with the movement of water through the atmosphere including the formaion of clouds and precipitaion over land and water. Surface tension the tension of the surface ilm of a liquid caused by the atracion of paricles. Capillarity tendency of a liquid in a capillary tube to rise or fall as a result of surface tension. Sublimaion process by which ice changes directly to water vapor. Amount of energy needed to induce a phase change from liquid to vapor (540 cal) Latent heat of condensaion when water vapor condenses to a liquid and gives up 540 cal.
