Explanation:

The amount of moisture present in air at a given temperature is known as humidity.

Whereas relative humidity is the amount of percentage of moisture it contains when compared to the maximum moisture it can contain at a given temperature.

Also % Relative humidity (RH) = $\frac{P}{P_{vap}}$

where, P = the partial pressure of water vapour

$P_{vap}$ = the equilibrium vapor pressure at a particular temperature.

Accrding to the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, $P_{vap}$ decreases with decrease in temperature.

Hence, it means that at super-cooled conditions the %RH would be 100%.

On the other hand, the temperature will be very high at super-heated conditions.

Hence, $P_{vap}$ will be high hence %RH will be low.

It is also known that at saturated condition, P = $P_{vap}$

Therefore, %RH is 100.

Thus, we can conclude that when the relative humidity is 90%, we say the air is humid.

Explain why vanadium (radius=134 pm) and copper (radius=128 pm) have nearly identical atomic radii, even though the atomic numbe

Viktor [21]

There are few main factors affecting the atomic radii, the outermost electrons and the protons in the nucleus and also the shielding of the internal electrons. I would speculate that the difference in radii is given by the electron clouds since the electrons difference in these two elements is in the d orbital and both has at least 1 electron in the 4s (this 4s electron is the outermost electron in all the transition metals of this period). The atomic radio will be mostly dependent of these 4s electrons than in the d electrons. Besides that, you can see that increasing the atomic number will increase the number of protons in the nucleus decreasing the ratio of the atoms along a period. The Cu is an exception and will accommodate one of the 4s electrons in the p orbital.

Regarding the density you can find the density of Cu = 8.96g/cm3 and vanadium = 6.0g/cm3. This also correlates with the idea that if these two atoms have similar volume and one has more mass (more protons; density is the relationship between m/V), then a bigger mass for a similar volume will result in a bigger density.
