Suppose you have a 1 m^3 space filled with ~80% N2 and 20% O2 at 40C
and 90% relative humidity. The mixture is then cooled to 5C, at which
point the water starts to condense and falls out of the space. Which of
the following would people be comfortable saying?
a) the 1 m^3 of space has fewer water molecules in it than it did before.
b) the 1 m^3 of space is holding less water than it did before.
c) the 1 m^3 of atmosphere is holding less water than it did before.
d) the 1 m^3 of air is holding less water than it did before.
