Explanation:

Condensation is the process of changing water vapour into tiny droplets of water or ice crystals. In our atmosphere takes place in two situations, firstly, when the temperature is below freezing point or 0°C, and secondly, when it is above freezing point, so the outcome of the condensation can be classified into two broad groups as given below: (i) White frost, snow, and some clouds are formed when the temperature is below the freezing point. (ii) Dew, mist, fog, smog, and some clouds are formed when the temperature is above the freezing point.
