- A student leaving campus for spring break wants to make sure the air in her dorm room has a high water vapor pressure so that her plants are comfortable. The dorm room measures 3.25 m × 4.03 m × 3.04 m and the student places a pan containing 0.580 L of water in the room. Assume that the room is airtight, that there is no water vapor in the air when she closes the door, and that the temperature remains a constant 22 °C. The vapor pressure of water at 22 °C is 19.8 mm Hg.
