Is humidity the amount of water vapor in the air at a given time?
Yes it is.
The amount of water vapor actually in the air is called the?
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.
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.
What is the difference between relative humidity and actual humidity?
Humidity is the amount of water vapor at any given time and relative humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the greatest amount it can hold at that air temperature.
What is the amount of vapor that actually exists in the air at given time?
specific humidity
What is The amount of water vapor that actually exists in the air at a given time is called?
Specific humidity
What phrase describes the amount of water vapor that actually exists in the air at a given time?
Specific Humidity.
The amount of water that actually exists in the air at a given time?
Absolute humidity refers to the amount of water vapor that exists in a given volume of air at a given time. Relative humidity is absolute humidity relative to the maximum humidity for the current temperature.
What amount of water vapor that exists in the air at a given time?
About 5500 sguare kilometers
Does the humidity of the air affect how quickly water will evaporate?
Yes. Humidity represents the amount of water vapor that exists for a given temperature, pressure, and volume. As humidity increases, the evaporation rate will decrease.
Is humidity the amount of water vapor in the air at a given time?
Yes it is.
The amount of water vapor actually in the air is called the?

Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air at a given time At warm temperatures air can hold more moisture than it can at cold temperatures Relative humidity is the amount of vapor the air you?
