g A student performs an experiment where gas is collected over water in an upside down graduated cylinder. If the atmospheric pressure is 739 mmHg and the level of water in the graduated cylinder is 11 cm higher than the level of the water exposed to the atmosphere, what is the total pressure of gases inside the graduated cylinder

The total pressure of gases is equivalent to 739mmH divided by the area.

How to calculate the total pressure of gases?

To calculate the total pressure of gases, the next formula can be used:

  • Total pressure: Force/area
  • Total pressure  739 mmH/area

How to calculate the area?

The area of a cylinder is equal to 2πrh+2πr².

You can know the radio by checking the measurement of the base of the graduated cylinder. Also, you can determine the height by observing how many mm the gas is occupying. Then follow these steps:

  • Find out the area based on the formula provided.
  • Replace the area in the pressure formula.
  • Solve the formula.

Note: This question is incomplete because the height occupied by the gas and the radio of the cylinder are not provided. Due to this, I answered this question based on general knowledge.
