Why are condensation and saturation more likely to occur on a cold day than on a warm day?

Saturation and condensation are more likely to occur on a cold day. The temperature in the air is increased by the process of moisture condensation.Ê


Does salt reach it saturation sooner when dissolved in hot water or cold?

Cold water can dissolve less salt than can hot water. Therefore, you would reach the saturation point faster with cold water.


What process is not essential for the water cycle to occur?

I would think that its the saturation of clouds as if its cold surely the water vapour can condense and turn to rain or another form of precipitation.


How many grams of salt can be dissolved in 20mL of water before saturation will occur?

Approx. 7,2 g at 20 0C.


What happens when temperature and dew point are equal?

This is the point at which saturation occurs. This is also signifies 100% relative humidity. If you want to find out how close it is to reaching saturation, all you have to do is find actual vapor pressure (found by temp.), and saturation vapor pressure(found by dewpoint). You can look online for conversion charts. Once you find them, plug them into this equation: actual vapor pressure/saturation vapor pressure x 100%. Your answer should be a percentage. If it's around 60-80 percent, then you know it's cold, and there is high humidity; thus, saturation is likely to occur. If it's around 10-30 percent, then you know the humidity is low and saturation is not likely occur. Warm weather= low humidity Cold weather= high humidity.


How are the water table and the zone of saturation related?

The zone of saturation and the water table share two zones of ground water.

What happens when a substance reaches its saturation point?

A change of state will occur.


What is critical water saturation?

critical water saturation (sometimes called Irreducible water saturation) defines the maximum water saturation that a formation with a given permeability and porosity can retain without producing water. This water, although present, is held in place by capillary forces and will not flow. Critical water saturations are usually determined through special core analysis.The critical water value should be compared to the reservoir's in-place water saturation calculated from downhole electric logs. If the in-place water saturation does not exceed the critical value, then the well will produce only hydrocarbons. These saturation comparisons are particularly important in low permeability reservoirs, where critical water saturation can exceed 60% while still producing only hydrocarbons.


On what surfaces does evaporation occur?

Evaporation will occur on any surface having moisture on it, provided that the saturation or dew point has not reached 100% (i.e., the point at which the air has achieved the maximum amount of water vapor that it can hold).


Do cold air has the greatest saturation mixing ratio?

warm air


Why does cloud formation occur higher up?

Because clouds occur when water condenses from water vapour to tiny water droplets. Water condenses when it is cold enough, and higher up in the atmosphere, it is colder.
