Does the air you breathe out contain less water vapor than the air you breathe in?

No, the air you exhale is nearly saturated with water vapor.
During breathing, air is exposed to the moist tissues of the sinus, trachea, and lungs, and will typically contain substantially more water vapor when exhaled. The only exception would be for air that is already saturated or supersaturated with water.

What happens when water vapor comes in contact with cold air?
As the air cools, it can contain less and less water vapor as a gas. So the vapor condenses and creates visible mist called fog, clouds, drizzle, and rain depending on where the water vapor condenses and how much of it condenses. The rain and drizzle forms as the mist groups together and creates the droplets and drops.
What will happen to the water vapor in the air if the temperature drops as predicted?
When the temperature drops the less water vapor in the air
What happens to the vapor in the air when it gets cold?
I think as it gets cooler it can hold less water vapor....
How does water vapor in the air effect the weather?
colder air doesn't collect as much water vapor
How does air pressure affect how much water vapor air can hold?
Warmer air has higher saturation mixing ratios then cold air does. So therefore because of this 100% humidity in cold air is not 100% humidity in warmer air. The warmer the temperature, the more water vapor in the air. The colder the temperature, the less water vapor in the air.
What is a gas that you breathe out?
Carbon dioxide Nitrogen Water vapor (and believe it or not you also breath out Oxygen - although less than you breathed in).
What does the air you breathe out contain?
mostly the same as input, but less oxygen and more mucus
What happens to water when it is cold?
As the air cools, it can contain less and less water vapor as a gas. So the vapor condenses and creates visible mist called fog, clouds, drizzle, and rain depending on where the water vapor condenses and how much of it condenses. The rain and drizzle forms as the mist groups together and creates the droplets and drops.

How does less oxygen help the sand gazelle conserve water?
You breathe out less water and therefore don't breathe out any steam with water in it. This means you are conserving water.
Why you see your breath on a cold day?
What you see is water vapor. The air that you exhale contains water vapor. When you exhale during a cold day, the relative humidity increases. Relative humidity is actually the percentage of the amount of water vapr in the air. (the maximum amount of water vapor that the air can hold at that temperature) The colder the air, the less water vapor it can carry. When exhaled, air mixes with cold air, the temperature of the exhaled air drops, but there is more water vapor. When the air becomes saturated, (relative humidity is 100%), the extra water vapor will condense, allowing you to see your breathe on cold days.
Why do most low-level clouds have flat bases?
You can not see water vapor, which is a gas. As air cools uniformly with increasing height (the adiabatic lapse rate,for the cognoscenti), it can contain less water vapor. When it can't hold any more ,water condenses in tiny droplets.
What will happen to the water vapor in the air if the temperature drops as predicted?
When the temperature drops the less water vapor in the air

How does temperature affect amount of vapor in the air?
The warmer the temperature, the more water vapor in the air. The colder the temperature, the less water vapor in the air.
