Q. If the temperature of a place increases suddenly, the relative humidity
  • (A) Increases
  • (B) Decreases
  • (C) Remains constant
  • (D) Fluctuates
βœ… Correct Answer: (B) Decreases

Explanation: Relative humidity is the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapour in an air-water mixture to the saturated vapour pressure of water at a prescribed temperature. The relative humidity of air depends not only on temperature but also on the pressure of the system of interest. If the system at State A is isobarically heated (heating with no change in system pressure) then the relative humidity of the system decreases because the saturated vapour pressure of water increases with increasing temperature.
