Procedures and Methods for measuring (testing) the weigh of moist air versus dry air 

Purpose: 
Compare the weight of moist air versus dry air, all other factors being controlled

Materials needed:
Mason jars, one dozen (to repeat controlled experiment 4 times)
Aluminum foil , one square foot
Fishing line, one yard, scissors
Cotton ball
Distilled water, one ounce
Access to warm, dry room, or dry environment, like a desert setting
Extremely sensitive scales that can measure extremely small differences in weight between mason jars
Vacuum pump

Procedures:
In warm, dry room, or windless, desert environment set up a table.  

Prepare two, two by two inch squares of aluminum foil enclosed around a cotton ball with fishing line, such that the whole thing can be lowered into an open mason jar, without contaminating the jar with cotton or precipitate from the water droplet.

Open three of the mason jars and let the ambient air balance in all three.  Fan them to balance the air in all three.  

In one of the two aluminum foil, cotton, fishing line thingies put a drop of distilled water.  Be sure to allow for moisture to evaporate out of it

Lower both of these thingies into two of the jars.

Turn the lids upside down for all three jars and place them over the top of the jars, this will trap any moisture and prevent it from "convecting" away.  Wait for ten minutes, or so, allowing for evaporation.

Any moisture should have evaporated in from the thingies into the mason jars.  This should have increased the moisture level in the one jar and should have left it unchanged in the other jars.  The moisture having pushed out a equal number of air particles.  

Carefully remove the thingies and screw the top on the jars tightly.  

Be sure to only handle jars with latex gloves, don't tape or glue anything to jars.  Put jars in plastic bags to protect them from contamination.  Be sure to distinguish which jar is which.  And be sure to keep respective sets together.

Weigh the mason jars and record their respective weights
Open lid, fan to balance humidity level and weigh again
Evacuate all with pump and weigh again.

Produce a data table with all of the respective weights for all three of the jars.  Repeat for all additional (three) sets of jars.

Evaluate data.  

If the moist air jar is heavier (as I claim) then my premise is proven.  
If it is lighter then the traditional understanding is proven.  
If there is no measurable different then more precise scales are needed.

Density of Dry Air
The density of dry air can be expressed as:

ρa = 0.0035 pa / T         (1)

where

ρa = density dry air (kg/m3)

pa = partial pressure of air (Pa, N/m2)

T = absolute dry bulb temperature (K)




Density of Water Vapor
The density of water vapor can be expressed as:

ρw = 0.0022 pw / T         (2)

where

pw = partial pressure water vapor (Pa, N/m2)

ρw = density water vapor (kg/m3)

T = absolute dry bulb temperature (K)

Sam,

These procedures will test whether the particles of moisture are multi-molecular, as I claim, or monomolecular, as you and engineering toolbox claim.  If the jar with moisture is heavier, as I predict, then I am right.  If it is lighter, then you and engineering toolbox are right.  

The underlying theory is based on standard gas laws and Avogadro's law.  

Do you get it?

   James, in the scientific literature, "water vapour" is understood to
   mean water (H2O) gas. When the temperature of atmospheric water vapour
   falls to the dew point, liquid water can form. You denial of water
   vapour in the earth's atmosphere has you all bollixed up.

   Have not you ever seen a "dry rain" -- rain falling from clouds, but
   never reaching the ground as it re-evaporates to gaseous H2O?

Yeah, that's the belief, Sam.  But if moist air is heavier that would indicate that the belief is false. And if the belief is, in fact, false that would indicate that major parts of meteorology are a myth.  And since climatology was built upon meteorology, that would indicate that major parts of climatology are also a myth.  And if major parts of climatology are a myth that would indicate that global warming is not an emergency.  And if global warming is not an emergency that would open people's minds to being cognizant of the true threat that is facing mankind, evil penguins.

Hmm, maybe your dry rain will help us understand why Sergio can't get his smoking wet pants dry.  But I consider both of you to be penguin deniers.

   But water vapor is lighter than dry air and is observed daily to
   produce upward convection. Have you never lived by a lake? Or observed
   the evaporating H2O over crop land spawn thunderstorms?

   There is no doubt that:

   Water vapour (H2O) like Oxygen (O2) like Nitrogen (N2) is an invisible
   gas. There is nothing to see.

Anecdotal.

You should get some education is scientific methodology.

It's comical how angry you nitwits are when somebody doesn't conform with your brain-dead, sheepish, unscientific tendency to turn science based beliefs into a cult.

   More likely some are trying to help you understand that measured
   properties of water, liquid, ice and gas, the role water vapour plays
   is the earth's atmosphere, how physics measurements are made and basic
   physics, and finally about physics literature.

   In other words, some are trying to help you, a wayward sheep.

   I always wondered (and still do) why you started posting in
   sci.physics?

It is your delusions that are comical, i.e. any experiment, observation,
or definition that threatens your delusions is "anecdotal".

Seek professional help for your mental health issues.

     it is comical when you are trapped in your own corner, troll !

You still cannot answer these simple questions,

	1.  how does your shirt dry out on a clothes line ?

	2.  How does water get up in the air to make clouds ?


answer NOW !!


(can't ?  we understand your limitations in math, science, intellegence, 
and reality. But when you're just making stuff up a looney-toonie style, 
like a delusional Citizen Toxie, the hordes snicker at you.)

There is an abundance of cool dry air a few hundred meters above any point on the planet.  If it is heavier and the warm moist air along the surface is lighter why does it not just come falling down constantly, always.

The obvious answer is that moist air contains microdroplets, not gaseous H2O and is, therefore, heavier.  

Do you have any proof that clear, moist air contains gaseous H2O?

Actually, that is not true.  It rushes up occasionally, in storms.  So there is something wrong with your theory.  

BTW, my theory explains storms too.

   Humid air is lighter than dry air and therefore, rises. If it rises
   into cooler air layers and falls in temperature to the local dew
   point, it can condense into liquid water or ice.

   Evaporation from soil, oceans, plants and lakes results in a
   continuous supply of Water Vapor (gaseous H2O) in the earth's
   atmosphere.

   Water vapour (H2O) like Oxygen (O2) like Nitrogen (N2) is an invisible
   gas, so there is nothing to see.

Actually, there's a big problem with that assertion:

   Nevertheless, the fact that humid air is lighter than dry air is
   empirically so.
