Transcribed Image Text:What is the vapor pressure of water at 7.3 °C? (Use the Antoine equation.)
vapor pressure:
mmHg
What is the partial pressure of water in the room if water vapor is condensing on the window pane?
partial pressure:
mmHg
What is the vapor pressure of water at 22.0 °C? (Use the Antoine equation.)
vapor pressure:
mmHg
At what relative humidity in the room does water vapor begin to condense on the window pane?
relative humidity:
%

Transcribed Image Text:On a particularly cold day, you are sitting inside your warm room, looking out a window. You are not sure how cold it is outside,
but the inside of the window pane is 7.3 °C. Farther away from the window, the rest of the room is a comfortable 22.0 °C and
1.00 atm. At what relative humidity in your room does water vapor begin to condense on the window pane? Assume the inside
air is uniformly 22.0 °C except for the air that is very close to the window, which has cooled to 7.3 °C.
Solve for the relative humidity requested by first labeling the conditions on the diagram below. Put a label in each answer space,
putting a numeric value if the number is given or implied above. Otherwise, use "unknown".
