    Question

    Unit of Mixing Ratio is:

    A.

    %

    B.

    kg/m³

    C.

    kg/kg

    D.

    m³/m³

    Correct option is C


    Correct option: (c) kg/kg
    Why option (c) is correct:
    · Mixing ratio is defined as the mass of water vapour per unit mass of dry air.
    · Hence, its unit is:
    · kg of water vapour / kg of dry air
    · It is a mass–mass ratio, not volume-based.
    ❌ Why other options are incorrect
    · (a) %
    · Percentage is not a standard scientific unit for mixing ratio.
    · (b) kg/m³
    · Represents density, not mixing ratio.
    · (d) m³/m³
    · Used for volumetric ratios, not mass ratios.
    �� Key Points
    · Mixing ratio is commonly used in meteorology and agrometeorology.
    · Unit = kg/kg (often expressed as g/kg for convenience).
    · It remains nearly constant with temperature changes.
