Diatomic Gas

Molecule, is a collection of two or more atoms together (which constitute the smallest observable unit) into a pure material. There are some ways to represent the structure of a molecule. Factor symbols represent atoms in Lewis structures, and dots represent electrons that accompany them. A pair of mutual electrons (covalent bond) may be represented by a single dash. The ball-and-stick model depicts the spatial structure of the atoms better.

An airtight dispenser for drinking water is 25 cm × 10 cm in horizontal dimensions and 20 cm tall. It has a tap of negligible volume that opens at the level of the bottom of the dispenser. Initially, it contains Water to a level 3.0 cm from the top and air at the ambient pressure, 1.00 atm, from there to the top. When the tap is opened, water will flow out until the gauge pressure at the bottom of dispenser, and thus at the opening of the tap, is 0. What volume of water flows out? Assume the temperature is constant, the dispenser is perfectly rigid, and the water has a constant density of 1000 kg/m3.
