Question

The temperature and relative humidity in a room are 300 K and 20 % respectively. The volume of the room is 50 ma. The saturation vapour pressure at 300 K is 3-3 kPa. Calculate the mass of the water vapour present in the room.

Solution

Given, T = 300K,

Relative humidity = 20 %,

V= 50 m3

SVP at 300 K = 3.3 KPa

VP = Relative humidity \times SVP

= (0.2×3.3×103)

PV = mRTM

0.2×3.3×103×50

= m×8.3×30018

m=0.2×3.3×50×18×1038.3×300

= 238.55 g 238 g

Mass of water present in the room = 238 g
