Relative humidity depends on temperature and pressure.
The temperature and the relative humidity are 300 K and 20 % in a room of volume 50 m a. The floor is washed with water, 500 g of water sticking on the floor. Assuming no communication with the surrounding, find the relative humidity when the floor dries. The changes in temperature and pressure may be neglected. Saturation vapour pressure at 300 K = 3.3 kPa.
On a winter day, the outside temperature is 00 C and relative humidity 40 %. The air from outside comes into a room and is heated to 200 C. What is the relative humidity in the room ? The saturation vapour pressure at 00 C is 4.6 mm of mercury and at 200 C it is 18 mm of mercury.
