My take is that partial pressure of water is to be ignored. Seems like
basic pV=nRT question.


Well, going back to the original question...

If it says "collected over water" and "total pressure", I'd take the
water pressure into account. But who knows. The OP has vaporized.

It's more than that. It is a "collection of gas over water" problem.

No. Once the water level reaches equilibrium during the experiment, it
means that the total pressure inside the collection vessel equalls the
atmospheric pressure. The atmospheric pressure is read using a
barometer. The pressure inside the vesel consists of two terms - the
partial pressure of the H2, and the partial pressure of the water
vapor.

The partial pressure of water vapor is well-tabulated (just look it up
in a table, based on the temperature). This procedure doesn't work for
gases which either recat with the water or dissolve in it.

No what?

What you wrote below is simply an elaboration of what I said. I assume
you meant yes.

Yes, I misunderstood what you meant by "water pressure" - I though
maybe you had some notion of hydrostatic pressure, rather than the
water vapor pressure. But then I looked and saw your previous post. My
mistake :-)

Thanks for clarifying!

I was a little sloppy with terminology there, tho it seemed ok in
context. I try to not spend too much energy with hit and run
questions, where the student posts a question but then does not enter
the discussion.
