A

mosit air

B

`SO_(2)`

C

`Cl_(2)`

D

`O_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Out of the two gases, the gas with higher vapour density is heavier.
The VD of dry air is 14.4, but VD of moist air (water vapours) lies between 14.4 and 9. Hence, mosit air is higher than dry air
