Equal masses(0.500 g each) of hydrogen and oxygen are placed in an evacuated 4.00 L flask at 25 oC. The mixture is allowed to react to completion and the flask is returned to 25 oC and allowed to come to equilibrium. The equilibrium vapor pressure of water at 25oC is 23.76 torr. A.) What is the total pressure inside the flask before the reactions begins? B.) What is the mass of the water vapor in the flask at equilibrium?
