Homework Statement
Consider the folowing statements made about the space just above a small block of ice placed in still air,where the room temperature and the relative humidity are 30 degrees and80%
(A) Absolute humidity of air in the space just above the iceblock is higher than the absolute humidity of air away from the block
(B) Relative humidity of air in the space just above the ice block is higher than the Relative humidity of air away from the block.
(C) Air in the space just above the ice block is drier than the air away from the block
which of the above statements is true
(1) only A (2)A & B only (3)B &C only (4)A&Conly (5)A,B&C only
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I know that Relative humidity increases when the temperature decreases,
as for absolute humidity ,I don't think the temperature has any effect on AH?but I'm not sure.
I also think the temperature above the iceblock is less than its surrounding temp. so I think B would be true and maybe A?
If B were true ,I don't think C would be true,so I think the answer is(2),but I'm very very doubtful.
Hope someone could help.
Thank you
