50 cm3 of gas was collected over water at 10ºC and 765 mm Hg. Calculate the volume of the gas at s.t.p. if the saturated vapour pressure of water at 10ºC is 5mm Hg

A.

49.19 cm 3

B.

48.87 cm 3

C.

48.55 cm 3

D.

48.23 cm 3

Correct answer is D

General Gas Equation:

P1V1T1P2V2T2

where P1 = 765 - 5 = 760mmhg

V2=P1V1T2P2T1 

V2=76050273760283 → 48.23cm3
