Condensation is what happens after evaporation. Some examples are clouds forming or water beading up on the outside of a cold glass. It is caused by evaporated water cooling.

Condensation is the change from a gas phase into a liquid phase. When moist air touches a colder surface, for example a window, the gaseous water loses some of its energy to the colder window and the water vapor in the air goes back to a liquid. It condenses on the window.

Evaporation is the change from a liquid to a gaseous state. For example water in a lake is warmed by the sun some of the water molecules receive enough energy to change into a gas (water vapor). When enough of this water vapor gets together it forms clouds.

Condensation is the process in which water vapor in the air cools and changes back into liquid water, often forming droplets on surfaces. It is caused by the cooling of air below its dew point, leading to the saturation of the air and the subsequent conversion of water vapor into liquid water.
