What determines the water vapor capacity of air?

temperature


What is the ratio of airs water vapor content to its capacity to hold water vapor at the same temp is?

The ratio of air's water vapor content to its capacity to hold water vapor at the same temperature is known as the relative humidity. It is expressed as a percentage and indicates how close the air is to being fully saturated with water vapor at that temperature. A relative humidity of 100% means the air is holding the maximum amount of water vapor it can at that temperature.


What does water holding capacity of soil mean?

Water holding capacity of soil refers to the ability of soil to retain water within its pore spaces against the force of gravity. It is a critical property that influences plant growth as it determines how much water is available to plants for uptake. Soil with high water holding capacity can better sustain plant growth during periods of drought.


If the relative humidity in a specific location is 50 percent how much percent of water vapor is the air holding?

If the relative humidity is 50 percent, the air is holding half of the maximum amount of water vapor it can hold at that temperature. This means the air is holding 50 percent of the water vapor it could potentially hold.

Air that has reached its water-vapor capacity is said to be what?

Air that has reached its water-vapor capacity is said to be saturated.


What does it mean if the relative humidity of air is 25 percent?

A relative humidity of 25% means that the air is holding 25% of the maximum amount of water vapor it can hold at that temperature. It indicates that the air is relatively dry compared to its capacity to hold moisture.


What is the water holding capacity of loamy soil?

the water holding capacity of the loamy soil is very easy


When the air is holding a small amount of water what kind of humidity does it have?

This is called the Airs "Relative" humidity. The more water vapor in the atmosphere the higher the relative humidity will be.


What does relative humidity described about air?

Its ratio of the air's water vapor content to its water vapor capacity :)


What happens when a cloud holding water vapor suddenly cools?

When a cloud holding water vapor suddenly cools, the water vapor condenses into liquid water droplets or ice crystals. This process forms precipitation, such as rain or snow, which falls to the ground.


Why do we see dew drops on the leaves in the early morning?

When the surface of an object becomes colder as a result of sending its latent heat out, the existing moisture in the atmosphere contracts among itself. the air capacity for holding water depends on temp'. the warmer it is the more water vapor it can hold. during the night air temp' drops to its lowest near dawn at which point the amount of water vapor in the air may exceed its reduced capacity (this point is called the dew point) and water vapor condenses and forms dew.
