Relative Humidity One measure of the amount of water in the atmosphere is the relative
humidity, the ratio of the actual partial pressure of water vapor to the maximum possible
partial pressure of water. If the partial pressure of water vapor exceeds the vapor pressure (
Figure 1) at that temperature, the vapor condenses to liquid and either fog or dew begins to
form. In that case the relative humidity would be 100%.

- Learning Goal: To understand the meaning and the basic applications of pV diagrams for an ideal gas. As you know, the parameters of an ideal gas are described by the equation PV = nRT, where p is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, n is the number of moles, R is the universal gas constant, and I is the absolute temperature of the gas.

The absolute value of the work done by the gas during a cycle (a process in which the gas returns to its original state) equals the area of the loop corresponding to the cycle. One must be careful, though, in judging whether the work done by the gas is positive or negative.

- Learning Goal: To understand the meaning and the basic applications of pV diagrams for an ideal gas. As you know, the parameters of an ideal gas are described by the equation PV = nRT where p is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, 72 is the number of moles, R is the universal gas constant, and T is the absolute temperature of the gas. It follows that, for a portion of an ideal gas, One can see that, if the amount of gas remains constant, it is impossible to change just one parameter of the gas: At least one more parameter would also change. For instance, if the pressure of the gas is changed, we can be sure that either the volume or the temperature of the gas (or, maybe, both!) would also change pV To explore these changes, it is often convenient to draw a graph showing one parameter as a function of the other.
