The saturation of air is the point or the stage where no more amounts of water molecules dissolved in the air at the given temperature, pressure, and the amount of air. At the saturation stage, the condensation and evaporation rates freeze that is, the condensation rate becomes equal to the evaporation rate.
The relative humidity of the air at the same temperature and pressure is
Conclusion:
Therefore, the correct option for the statement “When air is saturated” is option (c).
