When collecting a gas by bubbling it out over water, what do you have to remember about the pressure of the gas you collect?     Nothing.  The water prevents atmospheric gases from mixing with your pure sample.     You must subtract the partial pressure of water vapor (which you look up in a chart)     You must do the stoichiometry of your gas reacted with water to form hydroxide ions in solution     You must know that it won't be anhydrous since it has reacted with water
