I just learned the name of what I don't know. (Smiles!!)

So, now I want to learn to read it.

Please.

So, lets say I take a given volume (say 1 liter) of saturated steam at 80 degrees F. and at 1 Bar.

Now I compress that volume 10:1. So now it is 100cc's. My temp from compressing the air says the temp will be 750 degrees or so.

Do I STILL have 100 percent saturated steam at the 10 Bar pressure?

Is the amount of water held as vapor more or less then it was at 1 bar?

How do I read the tables to let me know this? Mol's? Grams?

Please?
