How do I calculate the partial pressure of butane gas?

Featured Replies

I'm doing a lab report for an experiment about gas laws for my college chemistry class. One question is, "Use P total = P atm = P gas + P water to calculate the partial pressure of the butane gas collected." How would I figure out this problem? I also have P atm = 0.9733 atm, volume of gas is 94.2 mL, temperature is 21 degrees C from my data if this helps. Thank you!

So what is the partial pressure of water at that temperature?
