If you brought air at 32°C with 90% relative humidity into your house and cooled it down to 21°C, how many grams of water would condense per kilogram of air?
This question show how the relative humidity of warm, moist outside air changes when it is brought inside and cooled. People who live in hot, humid climates have to dehumidify their air to feel comfortable. As air cools, its relative humidity increases, making it feel muggy. What will be an ideal response?
