Solution

The correct option is B

Fog


Explanation for correct option:

B. Fog

Precipitation:

  • After the condensation of water vapor in the atmosphere, the liberation of moisture is known as precipitation.
  • The various forms of precipitation are rain, snow, freezing rain as well as hail.

Thus, fog is not a form of precipitation instead it's a colloid as the water vapors in the fog do not condense sufficiently to precipitate.

Hence the correct option is B i.e. fog.
