When saturated air is cooled what happens to its dew point

Physics
1 answer:
Eddi Din [679]3 years ago
6 0


When saturated air is cooled, it simply reaches its dew point. Dew point is simply the temperature at which dew begins to form.

Dew point of saturated air is already pre-determined by how much water vapor the air contains. A  state of saturation exists when the air is holding the maximum amount of water vapor possible at the existing temperature and pressure. The higher the dew point, the higher the moisture content of the air. Cooling does not change the dew point of saturated air, rather its the level of saturation. 

So if the air has more moisture, dew will form at a higher temperature and vice versa, but dew point is NEVER EVER GREATER than the air temperature.

Why does cold weather feel colder inside?
schepotkina [342]
One reason is that when you have been out in the cold, your hands feet and exposed features of your face will take time to recover as the blood circulation improves and supplied warm blood to capillaries. So the relatively warm room you enter will not immediately feel warm until the blood has regained its normal circulation. Other factors are that windows are cooled from the outside and condensation forms on the inside because of moisture in the air. For this condensation to evaporate requires heat, which will be extracted from the room and the air near the windows will be cooled. The cold air will descend and form a draught at floor level and this will tend to make the room cooler.

Magnesium Oxide Reaction
Verizon [17]

Answer:

When magnesium reacts with oxygen, it produces light bright enough to blind you temporarily. Magnesium burns so bright because the reaction releases a lot of heat. As a result of this exothermic reaction, magnesium gives two electrons to oxygen, forming powdery magnesium oxide (MgO).
