Question

what is the correct order of processes that occur for water to move from a lake to a cloud and then turn into rain?

Answer 1

1. Precipitation due to cold weather. Because water particles enter atmosphere at warm temperatures
2. Evaporation. 
3. Condensation

Answer 2

1- Evaporation: Energy from the Sun causes water to become vapor and rise into the atmosphere.

2- Condensation: The water is cooled in the temperatures of the lower atmosphere, turning it from vapor into liquid water and collect into clouds.

3- Precipitation: The clouds become too heavy to remain in the sky, and it rains.
