5. Condensation Condensation is when water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds. Condensation is when water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds.

6. Precipitation Precipitation Precipitation occurs when so much water has condensed that the air cant hold it anymore. The clouds get heavy and water back to the earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet or snow.

7. Collection When water falls back to earth as precipitation, it may fall back in the oceans, lakes or rivers or it may end up on land.When it ends up on land, it will either soak into the earth or become part of the ground water that plants and animals use to drink or it may run soil and collect in the oceans, lakes or rivers where the cycle starts all over again.
