A quantity representing the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere or in a gas. More specifically, relative humidity is the ratio of the amount of water vapor actually present in the air to the greatest amount possible at the same temperature. The humidity ratio of a given moist air sample is the ratio of the mass of water vapor to the mass of dry air in the sample. It is expressed in grains per pound (grams per kilogram) of dry air.
