How would you describe precipitation?
any form of water that falls from the clouds and reaches earth surface
When temperature goes up what happens to relative humidity?
For all other things unchanged: Relative Humidity can be calculated by this equation: RH = (Vapor Pressure)/(Saturated Vapor Pressure) x100 From what we know about Saturated vapor pressures (saturated warm air has more water vapor than cool air that is saturated) we notice that more water vapor in the same given volume of air would inherently increase SATURATED vapor pressure. Thus, by simple mathematics (explained below), we can see that relative humidity would decrease as temperatures increase. If, for a given fraction y/x, as x increases the fraction becomes smaller and smaller - assuming y is constant.
Which long-term atmospheric changes would increase the rate of chemical weathering of surface bedrock?
increasing temperature and increasing precipitation

How much humidity is need for snow to fall?
It doesn't matter what the humidity is at the surface. You need to be looking up somewhere around 5-10,000 feet and up near the 700mb pressure level. You're probably not forecasting the weather though, so it would suffice to say that the air in the atmospheric column will become saturated as precipitation moves in and sublimates. By the time snow reaches the ground, relative humidity is typically 90%+ at the surface.
How does global warming affect global precipitation?
It would seem logical to assume that increases in temperature would cause increases in precipitation.
How does globalization affect global warming?
It would seem logical to assume that increases in temperature would cause increases in precipitation.
What is the state of matter in which the rate of dissolving is equal to the rate of precipitation?
I guess the solution would then be called "saturated". Another term would be "equilibrium".
Is a mineral formed from magma or lava or through evaporation or precipitation?
Minerals form from crystallization of magma or lava, when they cool inside the crust or on the Earth's surface. Other methods involve the evaporation and precipitation of minerals.
What events could have created the increase in acid precipitation between 1955 and 1990?
More energy was being used which caused the increase in air pollutionThe events that could have created the increase in acid precipitation would be urbanization and the making of factories. This increases air pollution which increases acid precipitation.

What is the precipitation on Jupiter?
The types of precipitation on Jupiter is very different that the earth. If a person could live on the surface, he or she would see helium and methane raining from the sky.
What happens to a cell ratio of surface area to volume as the cells volume increases rapidly than its surface area?
The cell's ratio of surface area to volume would decrease if its volume increases more rapidly than its surface area.

How would an increase in mass affect the basic properties of a star?
As mass increases It increases the surface temperature , luminosity, and radius.
What would happen to a saturated solution if cooled in the refrigerator?
If it is saturated with a solid solute, you would expect some of the solid to precipitate out - as long as the solid could find a surface to nucleate on. If it is saturated with a gas, you would expect more gas to dissolve into it as long as it was still in contact with the saturating gas in the gas phase.
When the volume of a cell increases its surface area?
increases: by approximately the square of the cube root of the volume increase (that would be exact if the cell was a sphere). Or, in other words, if you double the size (diameter) of a cell. its surface area increases by a factor of 4, and it volume increases by a factor of 8.
