The relative humidity decreases. This explains why there is static and people walk around with chapped lips. Here is a link to a good explanation: http://en.allexperts.com/q/Accuweather-2546/2008/6/Physicial-Geography.htm

Does heating reduce humidity in a room?

Yes, heating can reduce humidity in a room because warm air can hold more moisture than cold air, causing the relative humidity to decrease as the air is heated.


As air is heated its relative humidity?

decreases, as warm air can hold more water vapor than cooler air. This causes the water vapor present in the air to be a lower percentage of the total amount the air could hold at that temperature, resulting in lower relative humidity.


During the subfreezing days in many parts of the country the indoor relative humidity decreases when homes are heated furniture and skin dry out and static electricity increases what explains the lack?

The humidity in winter is lower.


Why is the cold air described as dry when the relative humidity of that air is very high?

Cold air can hold less moisture than warm air, so when cold air is heated, its relative humidity decreases because the moisture content remains the same but the air's capacity to hold moisture increases. This is why cold air is often described as dry, even if the relative humidity is high.


Why do cumulus clouds look like floating cotton?

First, warm air, heated by the surface, rises. As it rises, the temperature drops, which increases the relative humidity. Once the relative humidity passes 100%, water vapor in the air begins to condense. The formation of a cumulus cloud occurs when the water vapor condenses on various nuclei in the air. This creates the puffy cotton-like look of cumulus clouds.


Can heated humidity be provided for both stationary ventilator and when the ventilator is in transport?

yes


Does talc change color if heated?

Talc don't change the color if heated.


Does aluminum change color when heated?

Yes, aluminum does not change color when heated.


How does gas affected when air is heated?

If the question is "How IS gas affected when it is heated":When gas is heated, it's volume increases (it expands).If the gas is contained within a chamber, the pressure will increase instead.


When high-level air in the subtropics sinks it is heated by compression and this raises its temperature and relative humidity?

When high-level air descends in the subtropics, it undergoes adiabatic compression, which increases its temperature. This warming reduces the relative humidity of the air, as warmer air can hold more moisture. Consequently, the sinking air becomes drier, contributing to the formation of high-pressure systems and arid conditions typical of subtropical regions. This process is a key factor in the development of deserts and dry climates in those areas.


Does the volume of an object change if heated?

The volume of a substance increases when heated


Can heated humidity be proved for both stationary ventilator and when the ventilator is in transport?

Yes, heated humidity can be provided for both stationary ventilators and ventilators in transport. This helps to maintain optimal humidity levels in the airway, preventing drying of the respiratory mucosa and improving patient comfort. Portable humidification devices can be used for ventilators during transport to ensure consistent humidification.
