उत्तर
Gases such as nitrogen and hydrogen are collected over water as shown in the diagram. When the gas is collected over water, the gas is moist and contains water vapour. The total pressure exerted by this moist gas is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the dry gas and the pressure exerted by water vapour. The partial pressure of water vapour is also known as aqueous tension.
Ptotal = Pgas + Pwater vapour
Pgas = Ptotal- Pwater vapour
Actual pressure of gas = Total pressure - Aqueous tension
