A.
Saturation temperature
B.
Critical temperature
C.
Condensation temperature
D.
Dew point
AnswerAnswer: Option D
Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
The temperature at which the air is saturated is known as Dew point. Dew point temperature is defined as the temperature to which the air would have to cool (at constant pressure and constant water vapor content) in order to reach saturation. A state of saturation exists when the air is holding the maximum amount of water vapor possible at the existing temperature and pressure.
