A barometer correctly reads the atmospheric pressure as 76cm of mercury. Water droplets are slowly introduced into the barometer tube by a dropper. The height of the mercury column first decreases and then become constant. If the saturation vapour pressure at the atmospheric temperature is 0.80cm of mercury, find the height if the mercury column when it reaches its minimum value.

If common salt is dissolved in water, the vapour pressure of the solution will
