===About EvaporatingCondensing===
: Cooling a [[gas]] will cause it to '''condense''' into a [[liquid]].
: '''Condensing''' is a [[Reversible Changes|reversible]] process. When a [[gas]] '''condenses''' into a [[liquid]] you can [[Evaporating|evaporate]] that [[liquid]] back into a [[gas]].
: You may have seen water '''condensing'''.
