What refers to the amount of water vapour in the air?
Relative Humidity is the measure of water vapour in air. It is the ratio of the actual water vapour in air divided by the maximum amount the water the air can hold at the existing temperature and pressure. It tells how fast or slow the water on the body or in clothes will evaporate or in otherwords is the air dry or humid. Absolute measure of water vapour in air is called specific humidity. It can be measured as ratio of mass of water and mass of dry air.
What is the major factor affecting the amount of water vapour?
The major factor affecting the amount of water vapour is temperature.
What is relative humidity a ratio of?
Relative humidity is the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapour to the saturation vapour pressure of water at the same temperature. Relative humidity depends on temperature and the pressure. Very roughly speaking, it is a ratio of the amount of water vapour in the air compared to the total amount of water vapour that it possible for that air to contain.
What is amount of water vapour in air called?
Humidity
What is the name of the amount of water vapour in the air?
humidity
Is the amount of water vapour the same everywhere?

What does humidity?

What is the amount of water vapour present in the air?

What is the ratio of RH?
Relative humidity (RH) is the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapour to the saturation vapour pressure of water at the same temperature. Relative humidity depends on temperature and the pressure. Very roughly speaking, it is a ratio of the amount of water vapour in the air compared to the total amount of water vapour that it possible for that air to contain.
The amount of water vapor in the air is called what.?
Humidity is the measurement of the amount of water vapour in the air.
What is the definition Humidity?
amount of water vapour in the atmosphere, or in a gas
What is the amount of water vapour called in the air?
