The dew point:
A)has the same relationship to temperature as does relative humidity.
B)can only be given in Kelvin degrees.
C)is the same as the temperature when the relative humidity is 100 percent.
D)is unrelated to the frost point.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The dew point is the temperature at which air becomes saturated with water vapor and condensation forms. At 100% relative humidity, the dew point is equal to the temperature. This is when the air can no longer hold the moisture in the form of vapor, and it condenses onto surfaces. The other options are incorrect because the relationship between dew point and temperature is not the same as relative humidity, and it can be given in Celsius or Fahrenheit, not just Kelvin. The frost point is related to dew point but is the temperature at which frost forms, not condensation.
