Water does dissolve in air , many experiments demonstrate this, every fluid does , even mercury , as demonstrated by people getting mercury poisoning when breathing air in contact with the liquid.... When water dissolves in air , it exerts a vapour pressure that effectively pushes out some of the air , and since gaseous water is less dense than air , it will make it buoyant.

At the same track and same barometric pressure, a large change in humidity can affect carburetor jet size more than a barometric pressure change equivalent to 2-3000 ft. difference in altitude. Thousands of serious racers each have a weather station at their trailer and closely monitor atmospheric factors as a race day progresses, particularly from day to night, because properly adjusting an engine for a change in atmospheric conditions can be worth several thousand dollars in either direction.

What is it you think is complicated? Dew point? Partial pressure? What?
