Dear Double A - that air is said to be saturated. It has 100% humidity.

Air does not hold moisture. I do understand what your meant to ask. It is a very common error and can be found in many science text books so it is important to point it out. I find this mistake often when people or text books are trying to explain moisture, humidity, and how condensation occurs in the atmosphere with the change in temperature. For an excellent explanation on why the use of the word "hold" or "holding" is not correct science in this situation, see the follow link:
