In the environmental context, 'vapor' refers to the gaseous form of a substance that is typically in a solid or liquid state at normal temperature and pressure. When substances undergo vaporization, they transform from a condensed phase (solid or liquid) to a gaseous phase.

Vapor plays a significant role in various environmental processes, including the water cycle, air pollution, and the Behavior of chemicals in the atmosphere. In the following explanation, I will delve into the concept of vapor in the environmental context, provide examples, and list some similar things:

  1. Water Vapor: Water vapor is the most common form of vapor in the environment. It is the gaseous phase of water and plays a crucial role in the water cycle. Examples of water vapor-related processes include:

  2. Air Pollutants in Vapor Form: Several harmful substances can exist in vapor form in the environment, contributing to air pollution. Examples of vapor-based air pollutants include:
