Why can atmospheric water vapour generally increase with rising temperature?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because warm air can hold more moisture and evaporation increases
Temperature affects both evaporation and the moisture-holding capacity of air. When a surface becomes warmer, more water molecules escape into the atmosphere, and warm air can contain more water vapour before reaching saturation. If cooling later occurs, condensation may form clouds or rain. Option A correctly states this relationship; the other options describe impossible changes involving gravity, nitrogen or the presence of gases.
