The correct answer is - B. Water vapor would condense into tiny droplets.

When it is hot and sunny, the water is evaporating intensely. It evaporates in the form of water vapor. The water vapor is lighter than the air so it goes further up into the atmosphere. As it reaches the cooler part of the atmosphere the water vapor will start to condensate.

From the condensation onward it will be the reverse process. Once the water vapor condensates, it will create small droplets. The small droplets will than fall back on the Earth, under the influence of the gravity, in the form of precipitation.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. During a hot day, warm and moist air rises and cools in the atmosphere. On the next day, water vapor would condense into tiny droplets. Have a nice day.
