The word vapour is used to describe those gases that usually exist as liquid at room temperature . Water particles in gaseous state are called vapours . Oxygen at room temperature exists as gas particles .

Is water vapor oxygen a necessary reactant for combustion?

Oxygen is necessary but water vapor is not.


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.


Is there a difference between an air bubble and a water vapor bubble?

Water vapor is the gaseous phase of water. Anything that is a gas can is "air." Water vapor consists of hydrogen and oxygen, "air" that we breathe contains water vapor (which you are currently exhaling due to cellular respiration) among other elements, mainly nitrogen.


Is water vapor made of oxygen?

No. Water vapor is water in a gaseous state. It consists of water molecules each with one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atom.


How does the troposphere hold water vapor?

Water vapor is held by the troposphere in between molecules of atmospheric gases like oxygen, nitrogen and argon. Most of the water vapor in the troposphere is realized through transpiration off the earth's surface.


What can you assume about the amount of water vapor in the air if there is no difference between wet- and dry-bulb readings of a psychrometer?

nothing is the difference

What is the main difference between the gas water vapor and the liquid water?

The main difference between gas water vapor and liquid water is their physical state. Water vapor is the gaseous form of water that is invisible, while liquid water is the condensed form of water that is visible and flows freely. Water vapor has higher energy and moves more freely compared to liquid water, which has a fixed volume and shape.


Is oxygen and water vapor a combustion reaction?

no it is not


What do plants release into the air during transportation?

Plants release water vapor (transpiration) and oxygen during transportation. Water vapor is released through small openings called stomata on the leaves, while oxygen is a byproduct of photosynthesis.


What assumption can you make about the amount of water vapor in the air if there is no difference between the wet and dry bulb readings of the psychrometer?

If there is no difference between the wet and dry bulb readings of the psychrometer, it can be assumed that the air is saturated with water vapor, meaning the relative humidity is 100%. This indicates that the air is holding the maximum amount of water vapor it can at that temperature.


What is the difference between humidity and relative humidity?

Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in the air, while relative humidity is the ratio of the amount of water vapor present in the air to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can hold at a given temperature.
