Given below are two statements

Statement (I) : Dew point is the temperature at which saturation of the air occurs i.e. the temperature at which the observed vapour pressure is equal to saturation vapour pressure.

Statement (II) : If the parcel of air is hypothetically held at constant pressure and vapour content, the temperature at which it must be cooled to reach saturation is called its dew point

In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are correct Correct Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are incorrect Statement (I) is correct but Statement (II) is incorrect. Statement (I) is incorrect but Statement (II) is correct.

Statement (I) is Correct: The dew point temperature ($T_d$) is the temperature to which moist air must be cooled at constant pressure and moisture content for saturation to occur, at which actual vapor pressure equals saturation vapor pressure ($e = e_s(T_d)$).
Statement (II) is Correct: This definition holds isobarically at constant vapor content, marking the threshold where condensation initiates.
Conclusion: Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are correct (Option 1).
