The maximum amount of water vapor air can hold at a given temperature
capacity
temperature at which water vapor condenses
dew point
When air is completely filled with water vapor
saturated
as temperature goes up the capacity goes ______
down
when the dry and wet bulb temperatures are very different the air is ____
dry
Which phase changes have latent heat gained
Melting & Vaporization
Where is ice melting ?
B-C
Does temperature change significantly during a phase change
No
Does the surrounding air warm or cool as clouds form
warms
Explain why sweating cools you down
As the sweat evaporates the sweat gains heat from your body
Phase change when water vapor becomes water
condensation
Which phase has the most energy
Gas
Can you see water vapor
no
What are the 2 examples of vaporization
Evaporation & boiling
What is the difference between evaporation and boiling
Boiling occurs throughout and evaporation only occurs at the surface
What is the formula of relative humidity
Humidity divided by capacity times 100
Can warm or cold air hold more water vapor
Warm
As the air warms up does the humidity have to change
No (humidity is not affected by temperature)
What time of day has the highest relative humidity
dawn
If the temperature decrease and the humidity remains constant does the relative humidity go up or down
up
Solid which is needed for condensation
Condensation nuclei
Do clouds form or evaporate as warm air rises
form
What are we looking at when we see our breathe ?
water
Was the air saturated when the sweat formed on the can?
yes
Explain why the orange does not get ruined ?
As the water freezes it releases latent heat into the orange
Can the relative humidity ever be 100% Relative humidity NO
