The mechanism of two-component cloud formation is studied with allowance for the intersolubility of components. Equations describing the condensation growth of NH3-H2O drops are derived. It is shown that the time needed to achieve the equilibrium concentration is less than a fraction of a second, a finding which attests to the need to account for intersolubility. A computation of the water-ammonia cloud for Jupiter is presented to illustrate the laws of mixed cloud formation.
