Note that when the relative humidityis 30%, the air temperature may be diff erent than it is when the relativehumidity is 40%. A. It is possible that at a relative humidity of 30% there is a smaller partial pressure of water vapor in the air than there is at a relativehumidity of 40%.B. It is possible that there is the same partial pressure of water vapor in the air at 30% and at 40% relative humidity. C.

- One easy way to reduce heating (and cooling) costs is to add extra insulation in the attic of a house. Suppose the house already had 15 cm of fiberglass insulation in the attic and in all the exterior surfaces. If you added an extra 8.0 cm of fiberglass to the attic, then by what percentage would the heating cost of the house drop? Take the single story house to be of dimensions 10 m by 15 m by 3.0 m.
