A weather balloon measures a temperature of 11°C and a mixing ratio of 12.5 g kg^-1 at 850 hPa. Twenty-four hours later, the passage of a dryline has left the same location with the same temperature but a mixing ratio of 6 g kg^-1. What is the change in the density of the air during this period? You may assume an ideal gas.
