Relative Humidity
[edit]In reference to the "lightness of water"-- what I meant was the weight of water molecules (oxygen=16 2 Hydrogen = 18) versus N2 (28) and O2 (32). Assuming the water molecules have the energy to stay unattatched to other water molecules (and thus form a droplet too heavy to stay afloat), they have less density (or maybe mass, not sure) than the surrounding air. Make sense or did I butcher this completely? (Gaviidae) 82.93.133.130 23:09, 2 December 2006 (UTC) (you can answer me either talk page)
- Also, if the lightness of the water molecules has nothing to do with RH and only AH, then it's also mentioned under Other Important Facts, six paragraphs down. 82.93.133.130 23:13, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit]Dependence of RH on other gases
[edit]I'm wondering if you could explain a bit further the following statement you've made recently in connection with the article on relative humidity:
- RH does not depend on other gases [i.e. other than water vapor] AT ALL.
The reason I'm asking this is that there seems to be a simple argument for the opposite conclusion. Here it is:
- Consider a sample of nH2O(g) moles of water molecules in a volume V at temperature T. Now let us vary the concentrations of other gases present in the sample, while keeping nH2O(g), V, and T constant. As we do so, the partial pressure of water vapor remains constant, but saturated vapor pressure of water changes (slightly), due to the pressure enhancement factor. Thus RH=(partial pressure)/(saturated vapor pressure) changes as well.
- Therefore, in the above process, RH was changing solely due to changes in the concentrations of other gases present; the concentration and temperature of water vapor were not changing. Surely, given this, it is incorrect to say that “RH does not depend on other gases AT ALL?”
That's the argument. Is there anything wrong with it?
By the way, I will copy the substantive portion of this to the discussion page of the article, which is probably a better place to continue this discussion. Reuqr (talk) 02:01, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mburton.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Mburton.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use.

Image copyright problem with Image:Changes in Relative Humidity.jpg
[edit]Thank you for uploading Image:Changes in Relative Humidity.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sdrtirs (talk) 08:37, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
The article Xebec (company) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Non-notable, no sources found in two years.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Simon-in-sagamihara (talk) 10:19, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
Notification of automated file description generation
[edit]Your upload of File:Changes in Relative Humidity.png or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.
This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata.
