I think as it gets cooler it can hold less water vapor....
What else can I help you with?
Cold, dry air from Canada picks up water vapor over Great Lakes . What happens to this vapor after that?
it turns into oxygen
What happens to the vapor in the air when it gets cold?
When the vapor in the air gets cold, it condenses into liquid water droplets. This process is called condensation. This is why you see fog, clouds, or dew forming when the temperature drops and the vapor in the air loses heat energy.
When it's humid the air holds a lot of water vapor but when it's cold what happens to the water vapor?
nothing "happens" 2 the water vapor. the vast amount of water vapor in the air on a humid day as exactly bcoz its so hot. the water is drawn out of sources which holds it. but when its cold that water isn't drawn out
What happens when boiling water is thrown into cold air?
When boiling water is thrown into cold air, it quickly evaporates and turns into water vapor. This happens because the cold air causes the hot water to cool rapidly, leading to a phase change from liquid to gas.
Why does fog form when you exhale on a very cold day?
When you exhale on a very cold day, your warm breath contains water vapor. When the warm, moist air meets the cold air, it cools rapidly and the water vapor condenses into tiny droplets, forming fog. This happens because cold air cannot hold as much moisture as warm air.
Why you see your breath on a cold day?
What you see is water vapor. The air that you exhale contains water vapor. When you exhale during a cold day, the relative humidity increases. Relative humidity is actually the percentage of the amount of water vapr in the air. (the maximum amount of water vapor that the air can hold at that temperature) The colder the air, the less water vapor it can carry. When exhaled, air mixes with cold air, the temperature of the exhaled air drops, but there is more water vapor. When the air becomes saturated, (relative humidity is 100%), the extra water vapor will condense, allowing you to see your breathe on cold days.
Why does warm air hold more water vapor then cold air?
Because Water vapor is why the air is warm More specifically the Evaporation/precipitation cycle puts heat into the air via water vapor carrying heat from the surface of the earth into the air If the Surface is hotter then more evaporation happens and in turn more heat gets into the air with the associated humidity
What happens to the water vapor in the air when the air is cooled to its dew point?
When water vapor reaches its dew point it then becomes saturated. Either the vapor falls as rain, or if it is a cool clear night it forms as dew on surfaces. if the surface is cold enough it can also form as frost.
What happens to water vapor when it cools on a glass of ice tea and becomes a liquid?
what happens is that the air(vapor) changes state back to liquid when it hits the cold glass since the temperature lowers the energy of the gas and transforms it back to a liquid.
Why when were outside and speak fog comes out?
When you speak in cold or cool weather, the warm air from your lungs meets the cold air outside, causing a rapid cooling and condensation of water vapor in your breath. This forms tiny water droplets that create the illusion of fog.
What type of air can't hold much water vapor?
cold air
Why does boiling water turn to vapor in the cold?
Boiling water turns to vapor in the cold because the temperature difference between the hot water and the cold air causes the water to evaporate and turn into vapor.
