both are measures of how much water vapour is in the air
No, humidity and relative humidity are not the same. Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in the air, while relative humidity is a measure of the amount of water vapor present in the air compared to the maximum amount the air can hold at a specific temperature.
Relative humidity and humidity are related but not the same. Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in the air, while relative humidity is a measure of how much water vapor the air is holding compared to the maximum amount it could hold at a given temperature.
The relative humidity will decrease.
The relative humidity increases, assuming that the pressure stays the same.

relative humidity
Clouds can form at any relative humidity level, but typically they form when the relative humidity is close to 100%. This is when the air is nearly saturated with water vapor and begins to condense into liquid droplets, forming a cloud.
Hygrometers measure the relative humidity of the atmosphere. The relative humidity is the ratio between the present water vapor content of the air and the maximum amount of water vapor the air could hold at the same temperature. Cool air will not hold as much water vapor as warmer air. With the same amount of moisture in the air, an increase in temperature decreases the relative humidity, and if the temperature drops, relative humidity increases.
If the water vapor amount stayed the same, then the relative humidity would be greater.
