  b. The temperature of the surrounding air decreases.
  c. Any liquid water present will quickly evaporate.
  d. The relative humidity of the gas begins to decrease.

Question 2

Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Cooling a saturated gas below its dew point causes increasingly more water vapor to condense into liquid water droplets.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The BH of a gas is the ratio of its actual water vapor content to the water vapor capacity in saturated gas at body temperature (37 C). Thus, BH is the same as relative humidity, except that the capacity (or denominator) is fixed at 43.8 mg/L.
