Explain why a glass containing an ice-cold beverage often becomes wet when it sits out at room temperature
What will be an ideal response?
There is condensation forming on the outside of the glass. This is due to the temperature difference between the atmosphere and the beverage—because the drink is cooler than the air, the atmosphere immediately around the glass is cooled and reaches atmospheric saturation. This causes moisture from the atmosphere to condense on the solid surface of the glass.
