Which one of the following is an accurate relative humidity reading?

• 32 degrees

• 24 mL

• 45%

• 15 NW

Which will hold more water, warm air or cold air?

• Warm Air

• Cold AIr

The amount of water vapor in the atmosphere compared to how much it could hold.

• Saturation
• Vaporicity
• Absolute Humidity
• Relative Humidity

If the air is "saturated", that means:

• the air is full of water
• the air is partially full of water
• it's amount of water vapor in the atmosphere right now
• how much liquid water it potentially can hold
