That's an interesting question, because there are other factors that people forget to mention.
- Cold air tends to weigh more and therefore have higher pressure. That means that the cold air around your and your house is more dense.
- This means that the pressure of the air in your house is actually more dense because of the air around your house. So, although you've warmed the air in your house, it isn't enough to lower the pressure because you're sitting under the weight of miles of cold air piled on you and your house.
- This means that when you put water vapor into the air in your house, you're actually putting vapor into compressed air. This compressed air, tends to hold more warm moisture, because it has more molecules per square inch.

Can hot air hold more or less water than cold air?
Hot air can hold much more water because they are compacted and not spaced out.
What is an important property of air circulation?
cold air sinks, warm air rises, and warm air can hold more water vapor than cold air can.
What happens when there is more water than the air can hold?

Why does warmer air hold more moisture in the air?
It's not really accurate to say that warm air can hold more moisture. It would be better to say that warm air provides a more conducive environment for gaseous water to be in than does cold air. The reason that water is found in a vaporous form is that the water molecules have enough energy to be in that form. If the molecules are colder (have less energy) they will be solids and liquids. Warm air transfers its energy to the solid and liquid water molecules, helping them achieve a gaseous state. Warm air -> more energy -> more energy for water molecules -> more gaseous water.
Is sodium nitrate more soluble in hot or cold water?
Like most (but not all !) salts they are more soluble in hot than in cold water.
Can warm air hold less water vapor than cold air?
no, warm air holds more water vapour than cold air
Can hot or cold water hold more salt?
Hot water will hold more salt than cold water, because solubility of solids is proportional to temperature. That is, it increases with temperature.
Does hot air hold more water vapor than cold air?
Yes.
Does cold air hold more than warm air?
No. Warm air is capable of holding much more water vapour than cold air.
Can hot air hold more or less water than cold air?
Hot air can hold much more water because they are compacted and not spaced out.
Does Hot Water Hold More Sugar Than Cold Water?
Hot water dissolves the sugar particles faster than cold because of energy. The higher energy allows faster moving of particles as they are more energetic and this helps dissolve the sugar.
How much air is in hot water Is there more air in cold water under the same pressure of course?
Colder water can hold more oxygen than warmer water.
Can hot air or cold air hold more water?
warm air hold more water vapor...unless it doesnt like sandwiches between its toes at 5 o'clock in the after noon
Which has more dissolved gases in it-hot water or cold water?
Cold water can hold more dissolved gasses than hot water, though that does not necessarily mean anything about the amount of dissolved gas actually present in a given sample.
Why does hot water hold more dissolved solids than cold water?
the molecules are moving around faster and are more spread out, therefore leaving room to dissolve more solutes. Cold water molecules are moving slow and are close together.
Which liquid will salt dissolve more in hot or cold water?
The best liquid to dissolve salt in is water. This is one process that will readily happen in oceans naturally.
Is cold water more or less dense than warm water?
cold ocean waer has more dense than warm water.
