The amount of water vapor generally increases with increase in air temperature. The amount of water vapor in the air at a particular temperature is referred to as
Show Hint
- Super saturation
- Relative humidity
- Absolute humidity
- Saturation ratio
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Define the terms related to humidity.
- Absolute humidity is the actual mass of water vapor present in a given volume of air (e.g., grams per cubic meter). It is a direct measure of the "amount of water vapor".
- Relative humidity is a ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the amount of water vapor actually in the air compared to the maximum amount the air could hold at that temperature.
- Super saturation is an unstable state where the air holds more water vapor than it normally can at a given temperature.
- Saturation ratio (or degree of saturation) is a similar concept to relative humidity.
Step 2: Match the definition to the question.
The question asks for the term that refers to the "amount of water vapor in the air". This is the definition of absolute humidity.
