Boiling
Boiling is the rapid vaporization of a liquid, which occurs when a liquid is heated to its boiling point, the temperature at which the vapour pressure of the liquid is equal to the pressure exerted on the liquid by the surrounding atmosphere. At sea level the boiling point of water is 100 Ā°C or 212 Ā°F but at higher altitudes it drops to correspond with decreasing atmospheric pressures.
Condensationnoun
the act of increasing the density of something
Condensationnoun
water which collects as droplets on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it

Condensationnoun

Condensation
Condensation is the change of the physical state of matter from the gas phase into the liquid phase, and is the reverse of vaporization. The word most often refers to the water cycle.
