Yes, the pressure inside the collection container will be exactly equal to the atmospheric pressure if the water level in the collection container is level with the rest of the water. If the atmospheric pressure is different, then the pressure inside the collection container will be different, and that will affect how you calculate the amount of gas collected. If the pressure is different due to the difference in altitude of the location, or even different weather, the results will be different. Simply measuring the atmospheric pressure with a barometer will allow you correct for any such differences.

The purpose of container B in this experiment is to?

act as a control group to compare with container A and determine any changes or effects of the experiment on the system.


Explain why the container of water must be inverted when a gas is collected by displacement of water?

the collection of a gas over water involves a container in which the reaction takes place and a gas collection container filled with water and inverted in a reservoir of water. ...As the gas is created, it will displace water from the bottle. ...the container must be the sum of the pressures of the gas


In an experiment you use 0.457 L from one container and 0.432 L from another container of acetic acid in a reaction. How many MILLILITERS (mL) of acetic acid are you using?

You are using a total of 889 mL of acetic acid in the experiment by combining 457 mL from one container with 432 mL from another container.


Why is chlorine collected through downward delivery method?

Chlorine is collected through the downward delivery method because it is denser than air. By collecting it in a downward direction, any excess chlorine gas is forced out of the container as it is heavier and settles at the bottom, ensuring a more efficient and safe collection process.


What are the precautions should be taken before the collection of hydrogen gas?

Before collecting hydrogen gas, you should ensure proper ventilation to prevent the accumulation of hydrogen gas, wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety goggles and gloves, and ensure there are no sources of ignition nearby to prevent potential fires or explosions. It is also important to use a designated collection container and handle hydrogen gas with care to avoid leaks.

How to find gauge pressure in a closed container?

To find gauge pressure in a closed container, subtract the atmospheric pressure from the total pressure inside the container. Gauge pressure is the pressure above atmospheric pressure.

Why are you not crushed under atmospheric pressure?

The fluids in your body exert pressure and prevent the atmospheric pressure from closing in. Fluids exert pressure on a container the particles collide with each other and the sides of the container.


What is a collecting bottle and how is it used?

A collecting bottle is a container used for collecting liquid or gas samples during an experiment or testing process. The bottle is typically connected to a sampling device, such as a pipette or pump, which allows the precise transfer of the sample into the bottle without contamination. Once the sample is collected, the bottle can be sealed to preserve the sample for further analysis.


Why do the sides of a flexible container collapse when the air is removed?

A pressure difference is created, low pressure on the inside and higher pressure on the outside (the atmospheric pressure). The atmospheric pressure crushes the plastic container, acting on the outer plastic walls.


What is the total pressure of the gas in the container if the atmospheric pressure is 101.325 Pa?

The pressure is the same.


How is water distilled?

Distillation is achieved by boiling the water and collecting and cooling the evaporate in a sterile container.

How do you prepare distillation?

It is easy to prepare distilled water at home. Simply fill a large pot with water and place a collection container inside the pot. As the water boils, the steam is collected inside the collection container. This collected steam is distilled water and it should be stored in a sterile container.
