The mass of water vapour in a given volume of air is 0.05g at 20°C, while the mass of water vapour required to saturate it at the same temperature is 0.15g. Calculate the relative humidity of the air.
3.33%
5.55%
33.33%
55.55%
Correct answer is C
| RH | = | mass of water vapour in volume of air
mass of water vapour for saturation |
| RH | = | m
M |
= | 0.05
0.15 |
× | 100 | = | 5
0.15 |
= | 500
15 |
= | 33.33% |
