Are formed when moist air rises, it cools and the water vapour condenses around small particles in the air called <strong data-start=\"789\" data-end=\"816\">condensation nuclei<\/strong> (such as dust, pollen or sea salt).<\/p>\n<h2>Condensation nuclei: the origin of the drops<\/h2>\n<p>The steam of water, by itself, cannot form droplets easily. You need to surfaces tiny on which to condense. These surfaces are the <strong data-start=\"1070\" data-end=\"1097\">condensation nuclei<\/strong>.<br data-start=\"1098\" data-end=\"1101\" \/>Without them, it would be almost impossible to form
