Air is supersaturated when it has absorbed all the moisture possible at that temperature. By the way, hot air can hold more moisture than cold air, which is why it is called relative humidity.

What happens to the air when heated up?

When air is heated up, the molecules within the air gain energy and move faster, causing the air to expand and become less dense. This expansion leads to a decrease in air pressure and an increase in volume.


Explain how air can become a good conductor and what happens when this occurs?

Air can become a good conductor when it is ionized, meaning its atoms and molecules become charged. This can happen due to high temperatures, exposure to radiation, or electrical discharges like lightning. When air becomes a good conductor, it allows electricity to flow easily through it, leading to phenomena like lightning strikes and electrical arcs.


What occurs when water droplets in the air become heavier than the air can hold?

When water droplets in the air become heavier than the air can hold, they fall to the ground as precipitation. This can take the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail depending on the temperature and atmospheric conditions.


How does increasing attitude affect air pressure and density?

as the altitude increase, the effect of gravity become more insignificant on air and the air become more disperse or thinner hence it does affect the air pressure and density by decreasing both air pressure and density of the air.


What does droplets that become to heavy to remain suspended in the air fall out of the clouds as?

Droplets that become too heavy to remain suspended in the air fall out of the clouds as precipitation, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.

If the air at 75 degrees is full of moisture and the temperature suddenly drops what will happen?

If the temperature suddenly drops, the air will not be able to hold as much moisture and will become supersaturated. This excess moisture will then condense out of the air, leading to the formation of dew, fog, or even precipitation, depending on how much moisture is in the air.
