Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures says that the total pressure of the gases in a vessel is the sum of the individual partial pressures. Therefore,
Ptotal = PN2 + PH2O.
A volume of 35.0 mL of nitrogen gas was collected over water at 24 degrees C and 99.1kPa. The vapor pressure of water at this temperature is 2.99 kPa.
