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.
Is humidity the water in the air or the lack of water in the air?
Humidity is a measure of the amount of water in the air, compared to the maximum possible amount that could be dissolved.
What determines the amount of water that can be held in the air?
The temperature determines the amount of water vapor that can be held in the air. The warmer the air, the greater the amount of water that the air can hold.
What does airs ability to hold on to water depend on?
Air can hold a certain amount of water vapour. The amount it can hold depends on the air temperature - the hotter it is, the more water it can hold. A way to think of it is that water Can dissolve in air, just like some gases and solids can dissolve in water.
What humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the amount of water vapor air can hold at a certain temperature?
Relative humidity is a comparison of the amount of moisture that air is holding compared to the maximum amount it could hold at a given temperature. If it's holding all that it can, the relative humidity is 100%.
What is The amount of water in air compared to the amount the air can hold is?
relative humidity
What is amount of water in the air compared to the amount the air can hold called?
relative humidity
What is the amount of water in the air compared to the amount of air can hold is called?
Relative humidity.
What is the amount of water in the air compared to the amount of air can hold called?
"relative humidity"
What factor most affects the amount of water air can hold-?
Water vapor in the air compared to the amount of water vapor that air could hold at a given temperature.
What is the amount of water vapor the air IS holding compared to the amount of water vapor that the air CAN hold at that temperature?
Relative humidity
the amount of water in the air compared to the amount the air can hold is called?
relative humidity
What term defines the amount of water that is in the air compared to how much water the air could hold at a given temperature?
Humidity?
What is a measure of the amount of water vapor that air is holding compared the amount that it can hold at a specific temperature?
relative humidity
How is Relative Humidity Determined?
Is the percentage of water vapor that is actually in the air compared to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can hold at a particular temperature.
What part humidity is a measure of the amount of water vapor that air is holding compared to the amount that it can hold at a specific temperature?
