Answer : The correct option is, (c) 79.62
Explanation :
The formula used for percent humidity is:
..........(1)
The formula used for relative humidity is:
...........(2)
where,
= partial pressure of water vapor
= vapor pressure of water
p = total pressure
First we have to calculate the partial pressure of water vapor by using equation 2.
Given:
Relative humidity = 80 % = 0.80
Now put all the given values in equation 2, we get:
Now we have to calculate the percent humidity by using equation 1.
Therefore, the percent humidity is 79.62 %
