Quizplus · Accepted Answer

As the air temperature increases with no addition of water vapor, the air can hold more moisture. This means that the actual amount of water vapor in the air stays the same, while the maximum amount it can hold increases. Therefore, the relative humidity decreases because this is a measure of how close the air is to reaching its maximum moisture capacity.
