Answer 1

Answer:

The following might explain the lack of cloud formation

• The air package never reaches its dew point.

• There are too few aerosols present in the air package.

Explanation:

For the formation of the cloud the air in the higher position should have much colder than that of the surface. The vapours travels till it reaches the point where it has lower temperature as well as the pressure so that the water will condense into the droplets which will result in the formation of the cloud. When those vapours condenses to the liquid or to the solid it will release some of it energy to the air. For the formation of the cloud three things are mandatory and they are moisture, cooling air and the condensation nuclei. Also, for the formation of clouds, suspended particles like aerosols are required for the water to condense. As there are few aerosols, water doesn't get to condense.
