>>14189033According to thermodynamics, energy systems act to lower their energy. This is why bonds are formed, they release energy. (disregarding entropy in this case because that equation in this case has been figured out and you can google it, or I can walk you through it if you really want). So, it is energetically favorable for the water molecules to condense together, forming intermolecular bonds with eachother, and these are the clouds you see.
In NO point of this process, do you lose water
>>14188081 no capture system is 100% effectiveYou do not know what you are talking about. There is no physical law backing up your statement. In fact, there is a physical law CONTRADICTING your statement. Energy and matter are conserved (They are also equal to eachother, this is Einstein's E=mcc). Now, certainly there is no energy system that is 100% EFFICIENT, much of the energy used dissipates as heat. However, the matter and energy involved in the process do not disappear.
In no step of this process was the water molecule destroyed, or even altered. It was excited, and the bonds between water molecules where broken, allowing it to convert into steam.
Perhaps you are concerned that some water molecules float their way out of our atmosphere and enter the galaxy? I do not believe that is the case, but I have not looked into it. however, im sure you could find your answer very simply by equating the bouyant force of water in the atmosphere (you could use integrals if you like to account for the change in density of our atmosphere as you rise, all these values are documented), and you could even take an integral of the force of gravity as it decreases away from the earth. That should give you a definitive answer. However, I don't think there is any reason to assume that a water molecule has enough energy to freely float outside of our atmosphere. But again, the math to test that is readily available.
Again, nice troll.I'm bored at work and I don't do chemistry anymore
