  2. Water vapor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_vapor

    Water vapor and dry air density calculations at 0 °C: The molar mass of water is 18.02 g/mol, as calculated from the sum of the atomic masses of its constituent atoms. The average molar mass of air (approx. 78% nitrogen, N 2; 21% oxygen, O 2; 1% other gases) is 28.57 g/mol at standard temperature and pressure .

  3. Water (data page) - Wikipedia

    The third column is the heat content of each gram of the liquid phase relative to water at 0 °C. The fourth column is the heat of vaporization of each gram of liquid that changes to vapor. The fifth column is the work PΔV done by each gram of liquid that changes to vapor. The sixth column is the density of the vapor.

  4. Saturation vapor density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_vapor_density

    The saturation vapor density (SVD) is the maximum density of water vapor in air at a given temperature. [1] The concept is related to saturation vapor pressure (SVP). It can be used to calculate exact quantity of water vapor in the air from a relative humidity (RH = % local air humidity measured / local total air humidity possible ) Given an RH percentage, the density of water in the air is ...

  5. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Because the amount of water vapor in the air is small, relative humidity, the ratio of the partial pressure due to the water vapor to the saturated partial vapor pressure, is much more useful. Vapor pressure above 100% relative humidity is called supersaturated and can occur if the air is rapidly cooled, for example, by rising suddenly in an ...

  6. Water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water

    Dew is small drops of water that are condensed when a high density of water vapor meets a cool surface. Dew usually forms in the morning when the temperature is the lowest, just before sunrise and when the temperature of the earth's surface starts to increase. [103] Condensed water in the air may also refract sunlight to produce rainbows.

  7. Vapour density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapour_density

    vapour density = molar mass of gas / molar mass of H 2 vapour density = molar mass of gas / 2.01568 vapour density = 1 ⁄ 2 × molar mass (and thus: molar mass = ~2 × vapour density) For example, vapour density of mixture of NO 2 and N 2 O 4 is 38.3. Vapour density is a dimensionless quantity. Vapour density = density of gas / density of ...

  8. Density of air - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_air

    The addition of water vapor to air (making the air humid) reduces the density of the air, which may at first appear counter-intuitive. This occurs because the molar mass of water vapor (18 g/mol) is less than the molar mass of dry air [ note 2 ] (around 29 g/mol).
