Let P and `P_(s)` be the partial pressure of `H_(2)O(g)` and vapour pressure of `H_(2)O(l)` respectively. Then the % relative humidity is given by:

A

`(P_(s)+P)/(P_(s))xx100`

B

`(P)/(P_(s))xx100`

C

`(P_(s))/(P)xx100`

D

`(P+P_(s))xx100`

Text Solution

The correct Answer is:
b
(b) % Relative humidity
`=("Partial pressure of " H_(2)O(g))/("Vapour pressur of "H_(2)O)xx100`
