Chapter 12, Problem 12.128SP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Volume of water that condensed has to be determined sing the given data.

Concept Introduction:

Relative humidity is the percentage of partial pressure of water vapor in air to the vapor pressure at equilibrium at a particular temperature.

Unit conversion:

$\begin{array}{c}1ft=12in\\ \\ 1in=2.54cm\\ \\ 1atm=760mmHg\end{array}$

Ideal gas Equation: Any gas is described by using four terms namely pressure, volume, temperature and amount of gas. Thus combining three laws namely Boyle’s, Charles’s Law and Avogadro’s Hypothesis the following equation could be obtained. It is referred as ideal gas equation.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{V}\propto \frac{\text{nT}}{\text{P}}\\ \\ \text{PV=nRT}\end{array}$

Where,

$\begin{array}{c}\text{n = moles of gas}\\ \text{P = pressure}\\ \text{T = temperature}\\ \text{R = gas constant}\end{array}$
