Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Absolute humidity refers to the actual amount of water vapour present in a certain mass of air, typically measured in grams per cubic meter. Relative humidity, on the other hand, expresses the amount of water vapour present in the air as a percentage of the maximum amount of water vapour the air could hold at a given temperature. Average humidity and saturated air pressure are not accurate terms for this measurement.
