Chapter 5: Problem 109
Oxygen gas is collected by downward displacement of water in a jar. The level of water inside the jar is adjusted to the height of water outside the jar. When the adjustment is made the pressure exerted by the oxygen is (1) equal to the atmospheric pressure (2) equal to the vapour pressure of oxygen at that temperature (3) equal to the atmospheric pressure plus aqueous tension at that temperature (4) equal to the atmospheric pressure minus aqueous tension at that temperature
