When condensation happens near the Earth's surface, it produces dew, frost, fog, and mist, while condensation at higher altitudes gives rise to clouds. The textbook presents these forms in a specific sequence, starting with dew and frost, then moving to fog and mist, and finally discussing clouds as the most significant form. Each form is dis …
