At the boiling point of the liquid at the prevailing pressure, the saturated absolute humidity becomes______________________?
Correct answer: C. ∞
- A. 1
- B. 0
- C. ∞
- D. None of these
Explanation
At the boiling point, the saturation vapour pressure equals the total pressure, so the denominator in the saturation-humidity expression, P minus pA,s, becomes zero. Hence the saturated absolute humidity approaches infinity.
