saturation mixing ratio at sea level pressure
Added by James T.
Step 1
Saturation mixing ratio is the maximum amount of water vapor that can exist in the air at a given temperature and pressure. It is expressed in grams of water vapor per kilogram of dry air. Show more…

Find the saturation vapor pressure at 20 C and the mole fraction of water vapor in saturated air at sea level for 20 C. (Pressure at sea level is 101 KPa). Mole fraction can be expressed as ratio of partial pressure of the gas to the total atmospheric pressure.

Atmospheric pressure The pressure of Earth's atmosphere at sea level is approximately 1000 millibars and decreases exponentially with elevation. At an elevation of $30,000 \mathrm{ft}$ (approximately the altitude of Mt. Everest), the pressure is one-third the sea-level pressure. At what elevation is the pressure half the sea-level pressure? At what elevation is it $1 \%$ of the sea-level pressure?
