Hi

If a vacuum pump is operated on a test container (say at 150 degree C) and as a result at the outlet,water is condensed and collected. What would be the relation between Vacuum deviation in the test container and quatity of water extracted. Is it to do with Ideal gas equation, PV=nRT?

Thanks

Hi
Low pressure and vacuum are one and the same no? Is there any difference between vacuum level and pressure level?
