Graph of mixing ratio as a function of temperature

Water vapor capacity of air as a function of temperature. The water vapor unit shown is known
as mixing ratio: the grams of water vapor that can be present in each kilogram of air. For example, air with a temperature of 80 F has a capacity of about 23 g/kg of water vapor.
