Why is there a limit on the amount of water vapor the air can hold?
It takes a lot of energy to turn water into water vapor. The amount of energy that the water gains to turn into water vapor begins to be transferred into the surrounding air. If the air is willing to take on more energy the water vapor condenses quicker. This is why hot air will hold more water vapor than cold air.
What is water vapor called when it cools?
air.
What is the measure of the actual amount of water vapor in the air called?
This is called the absolute humidity, usually expressed in grams of water vapor per kilogram of air, but also by water vapor per unit volume of air (e.g. grams per cubic meter).
What is a measure of how much water vapor is in the air?
Humidity.
Is there a difference between an air bubble and a water vapor bubble?
Water vapor is the gaseous phase of water. Anything that is a gas can is "air." Water vapor consists of hydrogen and oxygen, "air" that we breathe contains water vapor (which you are currently exhaling due to cellular respiration) among other elements, mainly nitrogen.
What is water vapor in air?
Water vapor in the air is water in the form of a gas.
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.
What is water vapor meassured with?
Water vapor in the air is practically the same as measuring the humidity that is in the air.
When does water vapor in the air condence when does water vapor in the air condence?
it vapor when the weather is wet and if your driving you can see it on your windshield
What is the water vapor content in the air?
It means how much water vapor is suspended in the air, or how humid it is.
How does water vapor enter the air?
Water vapor enters the air as water at the surface evaporates or as plants transpire water vapor from their leaves.
Which is more dense air saturated with water vapor or air unsaturated with water vapor?
Saturated air is more dense.
If cold air mixes with air that has a lot of water vapor what will happen to the water vapor?
It may condense into clouds, or into precipitation, because cooler air cannot hold as much water vapor as warmer air.
What does relative humidity described about air?
Its ratio of the air's water vapor content to its water vapor capacity :)
Is humidity in air caused by rain or water vapor?
Humidity is caused by water vapor in the air, but rain contributes to the amount of vapor in the air, so I suppose you could say they both do, but it's the water vapor that truly creates humidity.
Would vapor pressure be higher in warm air or cold air?
SATURATION vapor pressure would be higher in warm air. Vapor pressure indicates the amount of moisture actually in the air, and we don't actually know that.
