The partial pressure of water vapour in a moist air sample of relative humidity 70% is 1.6 kPa, the total pressure being 101.325 kPa. Moist air may be treated as an ideal gas mixture of water vapour and dry air. The relation between saturation temperature (Ts in K) and saturation pressure (ps in kPa) for water is given by ln(ps/po) = 14.317 - 5304/Ts, where po = 101.325 kPa. The dry bulb temperature of the moist air sample (in °C) is ________.

Correct : 19.7
