Process by which liquid water changes

to a gas.


Energy is _________ during condensation.


Process by which ice becomes a gas without becoming a liquid.


3 phase changes that absorb latent heat.

Daily Double!!!


The maximum amount of water vapor that an air mass can hold

at a specific temperature


Formula used to calculate relative humidity


Two ways to increase relative humidity.


The mass of water vapor in a unit of air relative to the mass of the

dry air.


At the dew point, water vapor will _________ into a liquid because

air is _____________.


The air contains 5 g/kg of water vapor.

The amount needed for saturation is 10 g/kg.

What is the RH?


There is 10 g/m3 of water vapor in the air. Saturation value is 25

g/m3 of water vapor. What is the RH?


Two air masses are at the same temperature, but one contains 35 g/kg of water vapor. The other

contains 25 g/kg of water vapor. Which has a higher RH?

Daily Double!!!


The dew point for a specific air mass is 200 C. Currently the air mass contains 5 g/kg of water

vapor and is 35o C. By how much does the air need to be cooled for

saturation to occur?


The relative humidity at the dew point is always ________


Solid particles that provide a surface for water vapor to

condense into liquid droplets.


Dry air cools at a ______ rate than wet air.


Altitude at which the dew point is reached and clouds begin to

form.


Four methods that can cool air to the dew point and allow clouds to

form.


Reason why wet air has a slower rate of cooling than dry air.


Low, sheet-like clouds that can produce rain.


Name given to clouds that have a puffy appearance.


An altostratus cloud will be _________ in the sky than a

cirrus cloud.


Name two clouds with vertical development.


Name a cloud that is made of ice crystals.
