:rolleyes: i really don't know... is it because of diffusion? Since Bulb B had no water vapour in it initially, the water vapour from Bulb A would diffuse in Bulb B when you repeatedly open and close the stopcock?
I read your first post. I understand why the H2O would turn into snow when it gets into the bulb B. But how come the H2O doesn't stay in Bulb A? Because, similarly, the CO2 was only in Bulb A initially, and when the stopcock opened, some of the CO2 remained the Bulb A, while some of it went to...
There is, in the question it says that:
Bulb A contains a mixture of H2O (g), CO2 (g), and N2 (g) at 25'C and a total pressure of 564 mm Hg. Bulb B is empty and is held at a temperature of -70'C. And when it comes to equilibrium, the pressure in A and B becomes 219 mm Hg.
[SOLVED] Gases Problem
Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if someone can explain the following question:
An apparatus consists of three temperature-jacketed 1.000 L bulbs connected by stopcocks. Bulb A contains a mixture of H2O (g), CO2 (g), and N2 (g) at 25'C and a total pressure of 564 mm Hg...
