The 3 most important changes through which moisture changes can occur are ???
Condensation,
Evaporation,
-
When water evaporates, it (adds to/subtracts from?) partial vapour pressure of air, and thereby it (increases/decreases?) atmospheric pressure?
Adds to,
Increases
-
The saturation vapour pressure of moist air is determined by the airs (?) in that a higher (?) will produce a (higher/lower?) saturation vapour pressure?
Temp,
Temp,
Higher.
-
Does the demand for or release of Latent energy effect the temp of the substance undergoing the change?
Nope
-
The four main factors that affect the the rate of evaporation are what?
- Temp,
- Water content of air,
- Wind,
- Air pressure.
-
When water vapour changes to Ice, the process is called ? and does it demand or release latent energy?
Depostion and it releases latent energy.
-
Humidity mixing ratio is the percentage expression of the mass of (?) in gramms per (kilo/litre?) of (moist/dry?) air
Water Vapour,
Per kilo of dry air.
-
Absolute humidity means the (weight/pressure) of water vapour per unit (mass/volume?) expressed as ? per ?
weight or mass
volume,
Grammes per m3
-
List three methods by which relative humidity can be measured?
Wet Bulb/Dry Bulb,
Hair Hygrometer,
Lithium Chloride Element.
-
When moisture is added to the atmosphere, The density of Air (increases/decreases?)
Decreases.
