Document Summary
@ boilingm, es= ambient (atmospheric )pressure 101. 3 kpa. Ice has lower saturation pressure bc more energy from solid state to a vapor state = less water va. Limit less hydron bonding on a curve surface when compared to a flat surface. Absolute= actual amount of water amt in the air. Dew point temperature --> temperature at which moisture reaches saturation. Rh line : blue line ( always drops because amount of vapour ) On this particular day there wasn"t much change in the absolute amount of water vapor. To get condensation temperature has to drop to -8. 9. A: 1) no, because cold outside and warm inside therefore more water vapor inside. Close because water vapor in air is similar to outside . The air is dry so house plants are tra compared to outside is not transpiring e transpiring so much, compared to outside is not transpiring. Once the air cools to the dew point temperature, saturation occurs.
