Why are there drops of liquid on a soda can?
Read the description of the mystery in the office and write your prediction below.

When a worker at the Universal Space Agency returned from his lunch, someone had left him a gift: a very cold can of soda to drink! But when the worker took the can, he realized it was wet. The can was covered in a thin layer of liquid. Some liquid was slowly dripping onto his desk. What type of liquid is on the outside of the soda can, and how did the liquid get to the surface of the can?

Using evidence from the articles you have read, as well as from the Simulation and other activities you have completed in this lesson, write your initial ideas about why this mystery occurred. Get ready to share your ideas.

Answer:

Water condenses on a can of cold soda.

Step-by-step explanation:

Water vapor in the air reaches its dew point as it cools in the air around the can, forming liquid drops of water. Condensation is the process where water vapor becomes liquid.
