Gas collection by water displacement; measured gas volume must be corrected for water vapor pressure at temperature.

ଷ୍ଟେପ୍-ଷ୍ଟେପ୍ ଗାଇଡ୍ |

  1. 1Input measured volume, temperature, atmospheric pressure
  2. 2Correct for water vapor pressure
  3. 3Calculate dry gas volume at STP or other condition

ସମାଧାନ ହୋଇଥିବା ଉଦାହରଣ

ଇନପୁଟ୍
O₂ collected at 25°C, 760 mmHg, wet
ଫଳ
Correct for 23.8 mmHg H₂O vapor pressure; V_dry = 0.969 × V_wet

ଏଡ଼ାଇବା ଯୋଗ୍ୟ ସାଧାରଣ ଭୁଲ

  • Forgetting water vapor pressure correction
  • Not converting to STP correctly

ବାରମ୍ବାର ଜିଜ୍ଞାସା

Why correct for water vapor?

Measured gas is mixture of gas + H₂O vapor; must subtract partial pressure for true gas amount.
