recondenses
Becomes liquid again
Recondenses means to condense again—to return to a denser or liquid state after having been vaporized or dispersed.
The term appears most often in technical contexts involving phase changes: Steam recondenses on the cold pipes.
Water vapor that evaporates from the ocean recondenses to form clouds.
