A box contains 0.90 g of liquid water in equilibrium with water vapour at 27 C. The equilibrium vapour pressure of water at 27 C is 32.0 Torr. When the volume of the box is increased, some of the liquid water evaporates to maintain the equilibrium pressure. If all the liquid water evaporates, then the volume of the box must be litre. [nearest integer] (Given : R = 0.082 L atm K 1 mol 1) (Ignore the volume of the liquid water and assume water vapours behave as an ideal gas.)

Correct answer: 29
- Given data
- Mass of liquid water
- Temperature
- Vapour pressure of water at is
- Molar mass of water
We are asked for the box volume when all the liquid just evaporates.
At that limiting condition, the whole g of water is present as vapour, and since liquid is just exhausted, the vapour is still at equilibrium pressure:
- Calculate moles of water
- Convert pressure into atm
- Use ideal gas equation
So,
Substitute values:
First calculate numerator:
Thus,
- Nearest integer
- Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer:
Our derived answer is also .
