A vessel has nitrogen gas and water vapour at a total pressure of 1 atm. The partial pressure of water vapour is `0.3 atm`. The contents of this vessel are transferred to another vessel having one-third the capacity of the original vessel, completely at the same temperature. The total pressure of the system in the new vessel is

A

`2.4 atm`

B

`1 atm`

C

`3.33 atm`

D

`0.3 atm`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`P_(g)= 0.7 P_(H_2O)^(O)= 0.3`
Volume `(1)/(3)`, then `P_(g)= 2.1`
Total `P= 2.1+0.3= 2.4`.
